On behalf of the PyPA, I am pleased to announce that pip 19.0 has just
been released. This release brings support for multiple new packaging
standards.

The highlights of this release are:

- Python 3.4 support is deprecated.
- PEP 517 support is now implemented.
- manylinux2010 wheels are now supported.
- Dependency links support has been removed.
- Many bug fixes and lots of minor improvements.

In addition, when run on Python 2.7, pip 19.0 prints a warning regarding
the upcoming 2020 EOL of Python 2.7. A future version of pip will drop
support for Python 2.7.

To install pip 19.0, you can use get-pip (as described in [1]) or run::

    python -m pip install --upgrade pip

Note that if you are using a version of pip supplied by your
distribution vendor, vendor-supplied upgrades will be available in due
course.

The pip development team is extremely grateful to everyone in the
community for their contributions. Thanks to everyone who put so much
effort into the new release. Many of the contributions came from
community members, whether in the form of code, participation in design
discussions and/or bug reports.
