Doko and I were both in the packaging BOFs while Wheels were discussed at PyCon last year (I missed this year, I don't know if doko was there this year or not). I wouldn't write Doko off just because he's not active on the MLs or in the PEP process.
That being said, I like wheelfiles, and I hope we support them, but doko's point shouldn't be dismissed like that.
