Frictionless Maintenance: how to maintain 100+ open source packages

Jason R. Coombs is a shared or sole maintainer for over 140 projects in the Python ecosystem, a responsibility which he has accumulated over the past decade of his open source contributions. At this scale, it becomes unsustainable to employ bespoke, manually-intensive processes to the maintenance workflows. In this talk, Jason gives an overview of the Python packaging ecosystem and maintainer workflows, presents a selection of the challenges, and details some established and emergent techniques for tackling these challenges and streamlining the process.
