PPC nomination AMA for Brett Cannon

A couple more, if that’s okay :smiley:

  1. How do you see the PPC’s role interacting with PyPI, given PyPI is operated by PSF staff, assisted by volunteers rather than something the PPC directly governs? Or maybe you think it should? Where would you draw the line between packaging policy guidance and PyPI’s own operational decisions?
  2. PEP 772 leaves ‘establishing the Packaging Council and PyPA relationship’ to the inaugural council, and PyPA itself has never had real authority. Concretely, what should PyPA become: stay as-is, get formalized with real membership/governance, narrow down to just a project home + fiscal sponsorship umbrella, or get absorbed into the PPC’s standards role entirely?
