It seems like the first of the options is a discussion for python-dev not for distutils-sig, since we don’t have any control over what Python itself does on this list. The second option seems like a non-starter to me, I don’t think we can reasonably expect every single package to publish a multi SOABI wheel file that includes every possible SOABI (particularly if other Pythons are reusing the same directory— which they shouldn’t be IMO). Better tooling for multi-SOABI seems like a good thing in general though. — Donald Stufft
