What is this Python project?
This PR adds a link to Cloudsmith, which is a package management service SaaS. It's commercial, but it is completely free for open-source and it has generous free tiers otherwise. It has first-class support for Python package repositories (and many other package formats, such as Python/Npm), plus org/teams management, granular access controls, private repositories, repository-specific entitlements, a worldwide content distribution network, webhooks, access logs, etc.
What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?
It's similar to PyPi Warehouse, but is a universal packagement service that supports many different technologies beyond just Python package hosting (so would be useful for polygot setups, such as combining with Npm). Cloudsmith has a focus on simplicity and an ethos for being as secure as possible by default, which is seen in the breadth of features offered (e.g. automatic GPG signing, entitlements control, geo/IP control, etc.)
Full disclosure: I work at Cloudsmith.
