What should the relationship look like between the PyPA and the PPC going forward?
I think that the PPC is for making directional decisions at a higher level and the PyPA still acts as the collection of maintainers that continue to work towards providing tools that enable the goals of the PPC and packaging space. I think the PPC has a responsibility to engage and take feedback from the PyPA maintainers who’s communities are impacted by changes to the packaging ecosystem. I think the PyPA acts as one place that the PPC can go and get feedback about how communities have responded to changes.

Thanks Cary for being proactive and sharing your thoughts on questions posted on other threads. I have a few questions about the PPC and PyPA relationship.
- How would you feel about breaking out standards for packaging into an org outside of PyPA? For example, PEPs, standards, and packaging guide could be part of the PPC org responsibility while the PyPA org can continue to host packaging related repos.
- How would you envision the PPC communicating out and asking for feedback from the PyPA projects as well as projects (pixi, uv, conda, spack) that are not part of PyPA but important to segments of the Python community?
