Our release month would be October. But I'm always up for figuring out our release manager early. 🙃

@xavfernandez had expressed interest in being the RM this month. As usual, I'm up for doing this if no one else is willing to pick this up. :)

@pradyunsg please ping me when you start preparing a release. I'll do quickly a pip-tools release. Thanks :)

Knock knock @pypa/pip-committers -- who wants to be the RM? I'm gonna assume it's me if no one responds expressing interest by next week, Friday. :)

[xavfernandez]

@pradyunsg I'm still interested :) . If there is nothing important to wait (like #7102) I'll aim for a release during week 41.

Looking at the rollout planned above, I think so?

I mean, we'd want to support exactly (or a subset of tags of) what PyPI accepts. As long as the PR does that and there's no mismatch, I'm cool to merge it, since AFAICT, the changes are decent there.

@xavfernandez could you please flag on the manylinux2014 rollout issue that the changes needed are not reflected in the TODO list for rollout?

Alrightly, we have our release manager for pip 19.3: @xavfernandez. :)
