Request to add a new Trove classifier.

The name of the classifier(s) you would like to add:

  • Topic :: Internet :: GURT

Why do you want to add this classifier?

Recently the YouTuber FaceDev created an alternative protocol to HTTP, and it already has somewhat significant use, with thousands of registered domains and multiple major projects already running.

I am currently writing a Python implementation of its protocol, providing both a client and server, I have noticed other projects beginning to pop up on PyPi, such as gurtlib.

I believe it may be beneficial for the trove specifier Topic :: Internet :: GURT to be created, allowing projects for this protocol to be easily searchable, as more appear. Also, it would fit in with Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP.

Can you show that the topic is widespread enough? And do you have a list of existing projects on PyPI that could add the classifier immediately?

@merwok I do know my own project pygurt can, as well as gurtlib, I am currently unaware of more, but there likely are more.

If it helps, GURT's repo is here (as you can see, it is quite developed already).

It sounds like this is a niche topic, without a number of projects related to it on PyPI.
