Hi Chesnay,

We will publish binary packages separately for:
1) Python 3.5 / 3.6 / 3.7 / 3.8 (since 1.12) separately
2) Linux / Mac separately

Besides, there is also a source package which is used when none of the above 
binary packages is usable, e.g. for Window users.

PS: publishing multiple binary packages is very common in Python world, e.g. 
Beam published 22 packages in 2.28, Pandas published 16 packages in 1.2.3 [2]. 
We could also publishing more packages if we splitting the packages as the cost 
of adding another package will be very small.

Regards,
Dian

Hi Xintong,

Yes, you are right that there is 9 packages in 1.12 as we added Python 3.8 
support in 1.12.

Dian
