Minor hysterical note: The original joke, as I understand it, was
based on the fact that PyPI originally didn't contain any packages
(or distributions). Like the cheeseshop having no cheese, the package
index had no packages (or even distributions). The original joke
doesn't really apply any more as many or most of us are actually
uploading our distributions, so the project index really does indeed
have cheese, I mean distributions.
