When was the last time you used a 3rd party package in Python? Have you recently pip installed SQLAlchemy? Maybe looked up the documentation on a package you found on PyPI?
<br/>
<br/>
The two core pieces of infrastructure involved are both freely available and open source: pip and PyPI as well as ReadTheDocs.
<br/>
<br/>
How are these funded? How well are they funded? It turns out that we are not doing a good job sustaining the underlying infrastructure in the Python ecosystem.
<br/>
<br/>
This week you'll meet four panelists for a discussion on the problem and its solutions.
<br/>
<br/>
Donald Stufft from PyPI and pip.
<br/>
Eric Holscher, Cofounder of read the docs.
<br/>
Carol Willing, Director of the Python Software Foundation, Project Jupyter core developer.
<br/>
Ewa Jodlowska, Director of Operations for the Python Software Foundation.
