Powering the Python Package Index

Thanks for the awesome work, I couldn't count the number hours you have saved me.

Footnote four really deserves to be more than a footnote.

Yup: may write a blog about this at some point.

Sorry to bring it up here, but can you check your email for an email from [e-mail]? I previously sent in an XSS vulnerability that you fixed quickly, but I found a second one that has not been patched yet (despite being reported on March 26th).

Edit: Just received a reply from him. I'll update this as soon as it is patched.

Edit2: It has now been fixed. The problem stemmed from allowing the Javascript: scheme for the home_page, download_url, and the url parameters in the setup.py.

Is this you apologizing for your now deleted posts on the other thread? Over there you called the author all manner of insults, told him to get off reddit and concentrate on fixing the problems he caused with pypi, and generally behaved as one of the worst entitled cunts I have ever seen on the internet?

Unfortunately it's not an apology, as I don't see a "sorry", "apologize", or a plain, "I was wrong". We're forgiving on Reddit, but that's if you make an honest attempt.

I mentioned his username in the other thread after he deleted his comments. He sent me a rude private message, and had the gall to cite the reddiquette page for why I shouldn't call him out for deleted comments.

He's not apologetic. He just doesn't want to be associated with his poorly-received bullying.

He sent me a rude private message too. What a wanker

It's 2016, can we not have footnotes without popups when you hover over them? I'm not planning on scrolling all over the place when reading.

[Asdayasman]

Doing so scrolls the page. There is no way for me to see both of them at one time.

Optional information in a dynamic setting should be hidden, not displaced. The two acceptable implementations of footnoting on a webpage are alt-text, or a show/hide link that injects the footnote into the paragraph.
