This is probably the first library of it's kind that is unpackaged and claims that it doesn't need packaging.
- BiteCode_dev 6y agoDavid Beazley usually does that, and also refuses PR. He is interested in providing PoC (like with curio), but not doing what comes after.
- lstamour 6y agoI don’t know, the code itself is shorter and easier to read than the readme initially was. And maybe this will dissuade folks from installing and using this if they’re not committed to maintaining it as part of their dependencies. Dependencies do require your maintenance and oversight of new code revisions, but few people schedule such time. It’s essential though, any dependency could arbitrarily change its behaviour at any time, technically breaking your code until you can produce a fix. So dependencies are technically yours to maintain — you just choose to limit your maintenance from a “fork” to a version string and API usage, but the maintenance burden still exists...
- BiteCode_dev 6y agoYes, and he doesn't care.
