I think I didn't explain my point well. I don't call people using MIT stealing, it was just an analogy, maybe an unclear one. Anyway. > Calling another community "impoverished" which is far larger and produces way mor

I don't think that argument works. Stealing, for example, is old and common but still impoverishes the community. Way more people are involved in making closed-source software. MIT license encourages more closed source software, while

The MIT license encourages freeriding and impoverishes the free-software community, which reduces overall freedom.

You can't install a poetry package editably into another environment. It's really a missing feature in the pyproject spec. There's an open issue about it under one of the pypa repos. Someone just needs to do the work of imple

I don't know how much the original author had to do with Python's success in the last 20 years. The success of Python in data science is because of NumPy/Scipy/Pandas. Things like packaging that needed leadership never g
