BTW: I think I saw a tool for giving out rights on pypi to the zope.* set of packages for individuals in one operation. Is it supposed to work/be used? What's its name again?
Argh! This is scary, evil, and dangerous. If there is indeed such a tool, I suspect I'm a victim already. There was a point a few months ago (IIRC) at which many, many Zope-related packages appeared on the list of packages I could manage. Most I've never touched and a number I'd not even heard of. And I can't drop my own privileges on those packages due to a PyPI bug (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1855548&group_id=66...). Nobody should be added to a package they haven't asked to be on on PyPI, and it's reasonable they should have to list each package they want separately. -Fred -- Fred L.
