Packaging

Coordination Coordination discussions. This is mechanical stuff that involves co-ordinating multi-project effort, or stuff like the governance story about how we do those things. Announcements Announcements about projects. This is releases for “major” projects (mainly pip releases and PyPI feature deployments), as well as one-off announcements for new projects/tools. User Feedback User feedback about the packaging tooling such as information from a UX review, user surveys, and feedback about specific user workflows. Standards Standards discussions, ala PEPs as well as some proposals/grand ideas for changes to how things are done.
