Conda package for Comet

[duncanmmacleod]

Hi @jdswinbank. I'm interested in distributing Comet with Conda via conda-forge.

Do you have any objections to me doing this? Do you wish to be named as a maintainer?

Thanks Duncan

Hi Duncan — no objection from me. I'm afraid I don't know much about Conda, though — does this require anything to be added to the Comet repository, or is it purely something you can do within conda-forge? If the latter, I don't think there's any need to add me as a maintainer.

This is entirely external to the Comet repo, so I'll leave your name off. It can always be added again later if you want to get more involved.

Thanks, I'll point you at the recipe once its completed.

Sounds great — thanks for doing this.

@jdswinbank, it turns out there's already a conda package called comet, so I will have to rename the Conda package for this code. Can you just let me know if there's an alternative name you would like, or whether you prefer one of

• pycomet
• python-comet

?

Actually, nevermind, the other package has been renamed to make space.
