Thank you for this summarizing article. Yes, a lot was done during the last months. I liked the part "My core software ecosystem design philosophy" a lot, since it explains that both parties (software consumer and software publisher) want it to be simple and easy. About conda: if pip and conda overlap in some point. Why not implement this in a reusable library which gets used by conda and pip? About funding: Looking for more income is one way to solve this. Why not look into the other direction: How to reduce costs? Heading "Making the presence of a compiler on end user systems optional". Here I just can say: Thank you very much. I guess it was a lot of hard work to make this all simple and easy for the software consumers and publishers. Thank you. I wrote some lines, but I deleted my thoughts about the topic "Automating wheel creation", since I am a afraid it could raise bad mood in this list again. That's not my goal.
