A basic structure for Pypa project docs

why a consistent structure? in large part for making the "Python Packaging User Guide" more effective when linking and less redundant

All the projects should use the default RTD theme to match the User Guide.

"10 ways to make university IT assignments more relevant to industry."

 1) Change the assignment several times while students are working on it.

 2) Assign 5 new members to the team 2 days before the assignment is
due, claiming extra resources are needed. The students are told that
'mythical man month' does not apply in this case because of awesome
management skills.

 3) Have the best programmer in the team designated 'programmer'. Then

Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style
