Where would technical writing expertise be most useful for Python Packaging?

That’s maybe a really good area for funded work - developing newcomer-friendly guides and tutorials for packaging. We could get specialist technical writers and trainers to produce such things, rather than (as we currently do) relying on packaging specialists who are too close to the problem to know how to present things.

I’m guessing this would be purely toward improving the tutorials on packaging.python.org, but this would definitely be great to have.

I imagine Maintainer feedback required for user research would also surface some areas in pip’s documentation, and likely some other parts of the ecosystem as well.
