Pulp

+1 as long as it's the Python version that we would be using. Even though I really like Rust and would personally be easily able to help maintain it, I would find it hard to justify adding another language to our codebase, and deal with the distribution issues that would entail.

I agree completely, but given the choice between using it as is versus waiting to rewrite and then use it, I think using it as is would be easy to do given that I don't think we can prioritize its rewriting.

Well that's just it, it's already rewritten (at least as far as I can tell, see the repo I linked). Fabricio wrote a Go version as well, I'm assuming just as an exercise.

Also, how do you feel about making pdc part of the pulpcore package? I don't see a tremendous value in keeping it separate personally. It shouldn't change frequently and the only part of it that needs occasional updates would be the list of plugins.

I think this is a good idea, +1
