A couple of significant upcoming changes:

"build label" will be renamed as "source label" (since it refers to
the common unbuilt source rather than a specific build)
"version URL" will be renamed as "source URL" (same rationale)

The current names are ambiguous as to whether they refer to the source
code for the version or can be used to refer to built versions. Since
they're specifically for source references (you need to add at least
PEP 425 compatibility tags to construct a built reference), it makes
sense to change the names.

A more minor change is that the "organization" type/role for contacts
will go away. Organization will be able to have any of the defined
roles (author, maintainer, contributor) and if we later decide we need
a programmatic means to distinguish abstract organisations from flesh
and blood humans we can consider adding a new mechanism.

Cheers,
Nick.
