With one small amendment [1] to appropriately credit Geoffrey Thomas and to provide a reference link for CalVer, I'm happy to report that I'm accepting the manylinux2010 specification :) With any luck, the switch to CalVer in the naming scheme will also lower the barriers for folks interested in defining a manylinux variant that offers a new enough ABI baseline that it can support ppc64le and aarch64 in addition to x86_64. (That will still need a separate PEP to over the specifics, though) Regards, Nick.
