It works great, it's stable, never found a bug for years and it's compatible with the next python release candidates.

For the immense convenience it brings, the risk is very low.

I'm guessing it could stay that way for 10 years and still be perfectly usable.

Below what you quoted

> doit core features are quite stable. If there is no recent development, it does NOT mean the project is not being maintained... The project has 100% unit-test code coverage.

Similar in spirit, I made a reusable Makefile for my Python projects: https://github.com/sio/Makefile.venv

It's a shame that Python venv workflow is so opaque and unfriendly to new users that it requires extra automation tools.

Is there a Makefile trick to gpg sign a python package? I think the Python community would find that useful.

I love this. Thanks for introducing me to so many things in make I didn’t know existed and doing so in a manner than is understandable. Kudos

I remember when Python was simple.
