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.
