I could try to ship on https://conda.io/docs/index.html but still, pypi is a much easier platform to approach for the users. Since Python added manylinux1 abi support to wheels, I suspect that it may be popular to ship Linux-specific binaries -- unless we propose a freebsd abi to PEP? And I don't think this is a *big* decision... All we need are just Python modules with Linux binaries, we are not asking for packaging everything starting from setuptools! -- Zhihao Yuan, ID lichray The best way to predict the future is to invent it. _______________________________________________
