It’s not just open source though, because of his position Reitz had pipenv blessed by Heroku as the default and endorsed way to manage python packages as early as March.
Reitz is (was?) a developer at Heroku and pushed it as the solution for paying customers.

- legostormtroopr 8y agoUntil April this year Reitz was “Python Overlord” at Heroku. When it came to Python he most certainly did “run the joint”
- qop 8y agoYou don't really think that, you're just being adversarial here. Heroku is not even a part of the equation of whether or not he's responsible for oss that he authored. No matter where he worked or any of that. It's not his problem that people are using his software and have committed themselves to have expectations over something they have no right to try and control.
