Hear from PSF's PyPI Support Specialist Maria Ashna, MS, MSIST on what her day-to-day looks like, how she cleared multiple months-long backlogs, and the future of PyPI Orgs in this Behind the Commit episode from Mia Bajić. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/dsf-2iXf #Python #PyPI #OpenSource
PyPI hit over 1 million users and it's maintained by a team of just a few people. I talked to Maria Ashna, MS, MSIST, PyPI support specialist at the Python Software Foundation, about what that actually looks like: clearing a 500+ ticket backlog, handling edge cases nobody thinks about, and what are PyPI organizations. Episode link is in the first comment.
