@hipsterelectron@circumstances.run @pypi@fosstodon.org the PSF staff page lists:
* Director of Infrastructure
* Python Security Developer in Residence
* PyPI Safety and Security Engineer
* Infrastructure Engineer
* PyPI Support Specialist
idk what exactly they all do or what projects are in scope, but "nothing for feature work" seems like somewhat of an exaggeration.

@astraluma@tacobelllabs.net @pypi@fosstodon.org when i asked about the negative range request issue i was told that's not something they can escalate and when i requested to confirm the bandwidth reduction would be meaningful they said yes but they don't have bandwidth to review it themselves. i also know that PEP 658 support which was specifically intended to avoid reliance on the zip file hacks that benefit from e.g. negative range requests took years to backfill and is still not available for some wheels.
