Description:
Fedora's NeuroFedora
special-interest group (SIG) is considering a change of strategy
when it comes to packaging Python modules. The SIG, which consists of
three active members, is struggling to keep up with maintaining the hundreds of packages that it has taken on. What's more, it's not
clear that the majority of packages are even being consumed by Fedora
users; the group is trying to determine the right strategy to meet its
goals and shed unnecessary work. If its new packaging strategy is
successful, it may point the way to a more sustainable model for Linux distributions to provide value to users without trying to package
everything under the sun.
