Description
Build-independent format for source tree
This would be a desired feature somewhere in the near future.
Currently a lot of python projects shift towards more advanced build tools like e.g.
https://python-poetry.org/
https://pipenv.pypa.io/en/latest/
https://pdm.fming.dev/
These tools require a build-independent format (which is often not relying on setuptools / distutils)
furthermore these tools can satisfy deterministic builds easily.
The definition of this format is officially defined by PEP 517 and PEP 518, e.g.:
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0517/
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0518/
So basically what this means would be at some point to create a pyproject.toml which defines
all mandatory build / version specifications.
Since this project doesn't rely on a lot of dependencies, I think for now this is not an important feature,
but this should be addressed at some point in the future
Cheers
