[osgeo4w-dev] Adding a new python package

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi

I would like to add a simple new python package to OSGeo4W (and 
potentially a couple of others more in the future).

I noticed the description of creating new osgeo4w packages in the wiki 
(https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/PackagingInstructions)

This mentions, that one will need access to the osgeo download server. 
Is there a formal process to get this access?

And is there anything special to pay attention to when packaging python 
packages?

Thanks for any information, I hope I didn't miss any obvious documentation
