Hi All,
Any idea why my ReST isn't rendering for these packages:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/testfixtures
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/mailinglogger
Also, the search and front-page-newest-packages appear to be broken...
cheers,
Chris

Again, I can't quite follow. What specifically looks incorrect?

http://pypi.python.org/pypi
...lists nothing for me currently, it usually lists the latest added
packaged.
Also, searching for 'buildout' currently returns nothing, it usually
returns loads of hits.

Not so for me. I see the newest package as
2008-12-12 django-frontendadmin 0.3 A a set of templatetags to allow
an easy and unobstrusive way to edit model-data in the frontend of your
page.
and the oldest as
2008-12-12 go 1.2.0 Quick directory changing (super-cd)

I get loads of hits, right now.
Can anybody confirm Chris' observation? Or, better yet, offer an
explanation?

I can. I looked mroe closely and both problems are the result of the
PyPI UI doing a pretty bad job when you own a lot of packages and you're
logged in.
I have a *lot* of packages that I maintain, so the bar on the right
pushes any other useful content down way off the bottom of my browser.
Any chance of this getting fixed?

I wish I knew what "this" is that you want to be fixed. Can you please
make a precise problem description to the PyPI bug tracker?
(explain, in particular, what "a lot of packages" means precisely).
> PS: Management groups would be good too...
I don't understand that remark. What is a "management group"?

Generally, 'this' means 'whatever I was just describing', in this case:

Where's that?

Currently, packages can only be owned by an individual.
This is annoying when a package is maintained by a group of people, as
each person in the group has to manually have *all* the packages added
to their username by someone who already has joint ownership of them.
Launchpad does a pretty good job of this...

(I had to read it three times to understand what you mean - you want to
have people join a group, and then make the group owner of the package)
Feel free to submit a bug report/feature request. This is a significant
change, so in absence of a patch, don't expect that PyPI will change
here any time soon.

Subject: [Catalog-sig] date of a package release
Message-ID: <cbc7eb430812180620t298c43bcj827dfb38123eb900@mail.gmail.com>
Hi!
I'm creating an index of the various SciPy SciKits (
http://scikits.appspot.com/ ), and the date of a package release would
be helpful.
I have yet to see a DOAP record on PyPI with the
Project.release.Version.created RDF value filled in. Why is this?
The XML-RPC interface also doesn't return any dates. (Except for the
changelog method. But I can't really use that as Google App Engine
truncates data from remote servers if it gets too long.)
So my question: how do I go about getting the release date of a package?
Regards
Janto

You can find out the file release dates from the http file index
listings. The package release date itself is available only from
the changelog, which is available through XML-RPC.

Martin

Maybe I'm just being stupid, but what do you mean "http file index listing"?
Unfortunately I can't parse the results of the changelog method as
Google App Engine's quotas and XML's verbosity is not working that
well together.
Is there a reason the XML-RPC release_data() method doesn't return a date?
Regards

Yes: the release data in the database don't have a date stored, so it
can't return one.

Hello,
I don't know if this is the right place to report this, so please
direct me elsewhere if necessary.
I have noticed that the download link for the Python Imaging Libraries
1.1.6 is broken.
It does not point to the package, but rather a website where the
package is located.
This breaks it's installation with easy_install and pip.
Thanks,
