PyPI - how do you pronounce it?

Hopefully this will be a step up from Rick's threads in usefulness,
but I'm aware it's not of particularly great value!

How do you pronounce PyPI? Is it:
* Pie-Pie?
* Pie-Pip, but without the last p? (same as above but short i)
* Pie-Pea-Eye?
* Something else?

I've been saying Pie-Pea-Eye myself, but am wondering what the most
normal pronunciation is. And am fully prepared for the possibility
that there is no one "most normal"!

Obviously that's pronounced Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim-lim-bus-stop-F'tang-
F'tang-Olé-Biscuitbarrel.

* Pie-Pie?

Or that one.

Slightly incorrect punctuation there.

Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim-lim-bus-stop-F'tang-F'tang-Olé-Biscuitbaréle.

What flavour is it? <URL:

Concrete! Flavour of the month.

Thanks for the responses, all. Looks like Pie-Pea-Eye has consensus
(with hon mention to "cheeseshop", which makes sense for hysterical
raisins).

The British pronunciation of Beauchamp created a minor incident
at Yeoman of the Guard auditions this weekend.

What about Sir Richard "Chumley", the "Left Tenant" of the Tower?

Although this is now quite off-topic for this list...

Very true. Our "Feebee's" couldn't even manage to agree on Heigh
Ho. PyPI clearly ought not to be pronounced on sentence of death.

I actually always pronounce it "Python Package Index". That's unambiguous
(and can't be confused with things like peepee and stuff.)
