About: List Core Libraries #442
Description
Activity
I don't know where the list actually is. 😬
I'm not sure we want to emphasize that idea too much, since the distinction is to some degree arbitrary, but it's here:
The core projects were initially meant to be for the SPEC process. And I've been worried about the project being perceived as focused on the
core projects. The currently list ofcore projects for SPECsis a semi-arbitrary list and I am worried that we may not have permission to use their brands in ways extending past the SPECs. At the very least, I think we should get them to endorse more SPECs before using their brands more prominently. We don't want them project maintainers to feel they are being used to promote this project.I am not sure what we should do and it is worth discussing more. So far we've gotten explicit agreement from projects to list them where they are listed and we probably should keep it opt-in.
We had been thinking about emphasizing
domain stackson the main page:Maybe that would be a way to proceeed.
From my perspective as "outsider", it is just confusing to see the term "core libraries" without any more info on what those are on that page. So either link to them or remove that term altogether would be less confusing for me. Would be happy to PR if no one get to it first, and you decide what to do. Thanks!
What page?

I agree with this sentiment, and I think there are very few places outside of the SPECs (where it is structurally helpful) to distinguish between "layers" of projects. Generally, I think it's more of a continuum anyway that stretches from foundational through technique specific through domain specific.

Good catch! Yes, let's remove that. Thanks!! (It is also a different list of
core projectsthan theSPEC core projectlist.)- added a commit that references this issue

Please describe the new feature.
In https://github.com/scientific-python/scientific-python.org/blob/main/content/about/_index.md#what-we-do , there is mention of "core libraries" but I cannot immediately find that list. Would be nice if "core libraries" link to that list.
Add any other context about the new feature here, screenshots, etc.
