For the uses of pip, it would be preferable if there was an exported stable ABI that we could leverage to tag wheels with. For the people *making* Wheels, the less often that stable ABI changed the better, since a single wheel would be useful for more versions of PyPy then. --- Donald Stufft PGP: 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
