I modified my PR to deprecate the feature in Python 3.8. I'm not sure about scheduling the removal yet, since the Python 3.9 release schedule is under discussion: https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-596-python-3-9-release-schedule-doubling-the-release-cadence/1828 I would prefer to give at least 2 years to projects to update their setup.py (how they are distributed). Even if bdist_wininst has issues, it's not too painful to maintain a few more years. The removal can be decided later. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37481> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
