It is one upstream _project_ with one upstream _source_ - but upstream 
distributes that source via the language-centric _distributions_ pypi 
and npm.

We are an OS-wide distribution and should therefore hook onto upstream 
_source_ but use upstream source _tarballs only when sensible - e.g. if 
they provide multiple almost-sources conflicting with each other then we 
should untangle that mess (just as we may need to untangle other mess 
like inclusion of third-party sources, inclusion of pre-generated code, 
too tight relationships, etc.)
