Hi all,

RDO project started to look into packaging some of vendor libraries
that were split from neutron tree during Kilo for Delorean, and found
some issues with some of pypi packages that were released in public.

We feel that communicating each vendor may not be very effective, and
instead we should start collecting guidelines for those that are new
to pypi releases due to the recent vendor split somewhere for their
reference.

So I would like to advertise a wiki page [2] that is started to
collect best practices to release vendor code for packaging in
distributions. Both vendors and other packagers are welcome to fill in
the gaps.

Me being the sole author of the page for now, it's probably a little
bit Red Hat specific, and I am sure there are other requirements from
other distributions that are missing there. So I encourage other
packagers to get involved and fill in any gaps in the guidelines that
could help you in your packaging work.

Thanks,
