What it is `long_description` is generally, most applicably, what gets
put on the project's pypi page.
Sometimes this is exactly the same thing as what you want on your
project's general "read me" text, sometimes not.
For example, the two are different for flask, virtualenv, setuptools,

Wheels can't be required because they can be platform/python version
specific, being binary distributions. We can't demand that independent
developers support some combination of platforms and versions when their
computer might only be running one of them, simply because their wheel
might be platfo
Between setuptools / wheel / pip / virtualenv there is actually a good case
for a shared common code project to vendor from. The easiest example of
functionality contained within this would be version parsing, although
there are a number of other features as well (eg installing a wheel).

Err, slipped my mind that Donald is working on
https://github.com/pypa/packaging which also might end up being what I was

On the one hand, it's easy to see the allure of a zipimport-able format.
Grab a file, import it, use functionality straight away. It has an
attraction of self-containedness. On the other hand, python's dynamic
nature means that things are not as simple as Java jar's as Donald points
out. I agree th
Might I suggest you could upload some wheels (both windows and linux) to
testpypi, which afaik is pretty much made for this purpose?

People can easily install then with e.g. `pip install --index-url
