Is that yet another example of competing efforts in the Julia ecosystem where some of the authors leave the Julia community and their packages die? Can someone share the history of PyJulia and PythonCall.jl? What has inhibited the authors from collaborating into a single repository? Is their approach too different?

I became obsessed with this issue recently: [How to know if a package is good?](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/how-to-know-if-a-package-is-good/82133)
