<rekado>I'd rather not drop the python-notebook updates
<rekado>I've been in a similar situation for even just wip-python-team, which was supposed to just include minor updates.
<rekado>I'm slowly getting there
<rekado>the biggest problem in my opinion is that we must harmonize dependencies across independent projects
<rekado>if we could change the way Python loads packages then we could compartmentalize incompatible dependencies
<rekado>just like we can easily have different variants of a C library as long as we don't load it in the same process.
<PurpleSym>rekado: I have an idea how to change Python’s loader to do that, but it’s very much in a PoC stage right now and far from being usable.
<PurpleSym>Dropping python-notebook is painful, yes.
<PurpleSym>(I mean the update.)
<PurpleSym>But it might be the only realistic option to merge python-team soon-ish :/
