I'm following (and contributing to) python-can for more than a year
now and this is the first time in my memory that a release was
uploaded to PyPi, and this happened cause someone asked for that on a
project issue.

IMHO, it will not happen in the future again if not prompted by someone.

Indeed, I originally submitted the package using bitbucket as a source
location, cause it was the only available.

Sincerely, Angelo.
