"The Scientific Python project aims to support maintainers and grow the maintainer community.
We do so via, e.g., the Scientific Python Ecosystem Coordination process (https://scientific-python.org/specs/), by building tools (https://tools.scientific-python.org/: spin, lazy-loader, web theme, etc.), and by hosting annual developer summits. When an impactful opportunity presents itself, we take on bespoke technical initiatives such as the SciPy Sparse Array API refactor, or maintaining the myst documentation engine.
In this BoF, we want to connect with the community to:
- Learn about maintainer needs
- Explore ecosystem-wide ideas that can be captured as SPECs
- Connect with maintainers who are interested in participating
- Discuss domain stacks: groups of field-specific packages
Please join us to share your ideas for improving the ecosystem!
