Just to add - I use virtualenv often, and I would be happy to know it is maintained. On reflection, the reason I am not using venv is because a) I still need to test on Python 2.7 and b) I like `virtualenvwrapper`. I suppose someone could rewrite virtualenvwrapper to use venv instead, but a) is only going to stop being a requirement sometime after 2020.
