Greetings list, What do you think of adding PyInstaller as an official part of CPython? Among the different native exports options, PyInstaller holds a nice track of clean delivery.
Instead of the project battling for its survival as any other project, if the community finds it useful enough, the devs can get some peace of mind. The stereotyped idea about languages like Python is that they don't by default produce executables compared to let's say Go. Adding the native ability to produce executables can be a turning point for Python. In the process, PyInstaller might become even better. Sure it will need people who are well versed in at least 3 operating systems to maintain the project. It will add to the testing load but if it's worth it, it's worth it. Though for a good DevOps team, set up is not a concern. However, having an executable makes the task easy as you just ship a final product. I don't exactly know how executables will interact with the WSGI protocol but these concerns are for after and is an issue which does not concern integrating a library per se.
