-
(JRG) conda-standalone & constructor development
- How should we support these projects as a community?
- Constructor: want to merge various forks back into main project
- Napari fork: https://napari.org/developers/packaging.html#constructor-based-installers
- Anaconda fork currently private; working on-going to upstream differences
- (JL) Formally ask Steering Council to formally create a constructor project team; general consensus is that we should do this.

(MRB) status of anaconda.org support for sha256 and .conda
- .conda support ready to be released within next week or so.
- SHA-256 in beta test; initial release will not backfill checksums but will generate SHA-256s for newly uploaded packages.
- Will the anaconda.org API return SHA-256 for packages? (It should, but SC will check and confirm.)
What is this meeting for?
