It makes sense to have basic support in the stdlib.
I'm playing a much longer game than Daniel - when you're thinking in terms of the next few months, then the PEPs are only significant because the pip folks (sensibly, IMO) have made that a condition of merging wheel support (at which point people will naturally start using them more, since they won't have to seek them out, pip will cache the built wheels automatically) Core support only starts to matter once you're thinking in terms of *years*, and the way beginners will encounter Python's distribution ecosystem in 3.4+ :) Cheers, Nick. > > Ronald > > _______________________________________________ > Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
