New York University -- specifically Professor Justin Cappos -- and I <br>
have successfully asked the US National Science Foundation for a grant <br>
to improve Python packaging security. The NSF is awarding NYU $800,000 <br>
over two years -- from mid-2021 to mid-2023 -- to further improve the <br>
pip dependency resolver and to integrate The Update Framework further <br>
into the packaging toolchain.<br>
