Does anyone (potentially from OS packaging worlds maybe) have a good reason
NOT to have a dependency?

In the event that Django does have Pip dependencies, I still think we
should establish some rules. Things like they should be stable and mature,
and perhaps widely known, and still be under active maintenance. These are
all hazy ideas of course, but I think adding any new dependency should be
something which we are cautious of, not something we do without careful
consideration.

If someone can put together some documentation or a DEP for how this
process would work, I think this is a matter significant enough to talk
about properly, and in a thread more clearly named. Such a proposal should
also ideally reference what we do or have vendored before, why, and how
well of otherwise that process has worked.
