When was the last time you used a 3rd party package in Python? Have you recently pip installed SQLAlchemy? Maybe looked up the documentation on a package you found on PyPI?The two core pieces of infrastructure involved are both freely available and open source: pip and PyPI as well as ReadTheDocs.How are these funded?

It turns out that we are not doing a good job sustaining the underlying infrastructure in the Python ecosystem.This week you'll meet four panelists for a discussion on the problem and its solutions.Donald Stufft from PyPI and pip.Eric Holscher, Cofounder of read the docs.Carol Willing, Director of the Python Software Foundation, Project Jupyter core developer.Ewa Jodlowska, Director of Operations for the Python Software Foundation.Links from the show:
