I believe it's working, but it's the first significant change I've made in pip, so any review is welcome.

I've been seeing the PR comments in passing, but haven't really looked in detail. Is there anything I can do to help this along? If Donald is looking at "the next release of pip" for this (and virtualenv will presumably be released in sync, as usual) there's not much point doing anything shorter term than that for virtualenv, so it looks like option (3) it is :-) Paul ___ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig

I’d likely go as far to say that as soon as it lands I’ll probably release pip again. Beyond that I don’t have a specific timescale. — Donald Stufft ___ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
