I would love for more infrastructural #opensource projects to make wee videos like the 2020 "Changes are coming to pip" video we made https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4GQCBBsuNU (2min20sec).
Share the faces and voices of folks (only those who don't mind participating!) who worked on this and who will be reading bug reports. Briefly explain what big changes are coming, and why you're making them. And point to where users can read more, and sign up for future user surveys/interviews.
