Hello,

We use PyPubSub in a number of projects (and it's great) but are considering moving away from it because of the external package hosting on sourceforge. Packages installed through pip that are hosted on sourceforge are frequent causes of build and CI failures because sourceforge's uptime appears to be poor.

Any chance we could get those packages hosted on PyPi?

Hi Gary, great to hear about your use of pypubsub. Not so great about the issues caused by hosting on sourceforge. Is this because you can't just download the distribution then run it? You have to use pip install?

I also would like to see pypubsub on PyPi. I run a script which runs a bunch of pip installs on new developer pcs. Easier then hunting down each package, downloading and installing each package with different dependancies...

Why not just add --allow-external?

+1. Using --allow-external is an option but it complicates build scripts and adds an extra possible source for error.
