The current wheel . specification was written over a decade ago, and has been extremely robust to changes in the Python packaging ecosystem. Previous efforts to improve the wheel specification were deferred to focus on other packaging specifications. Meanwhile, the use of wheels has changed...

   Since Python . . , CPython has provided two verifiable digital signatures for all CPython artifacts: PGP and Sigstore.

   This PEP proposes disallowing bare except: clauses in Python’s exception handling syntax. Currently, Python allows catching all exceptions with a bare except: clause, which can lead to overly broad exception handling and mask important errors. This PEP suggests requiring explicit exception types in...

   This PEP proposes a mechanism by which projects hosted on pypi.org can safely host wheel artifacts on external sites other than PyPI. This PEP explicitly does not propose external hosting of projects, packages, or their metadata. That functionality is already available by externally hosting...

   This PEP proposes to allow unparenthesized except and except blocks in Python’s exception handling syntax. Currently, when catching multiple exceptions, parentheses are required around the exception types. This was a Python remnant. This PEP suggests allowing the omission of these parentheses,...

   Add a new C API to import and export Python integers, int objects: especially PyLongWriter Create and PyLong Export functions.

   Add functions to the limited C API version . :

   This PEP codifies an implementation of PEP for PyPI .

   This PEP recommends two discrete changes to the processing of core metadata by indices such as PyPI and other core metadata consumers:

   This PEP specifies a way for organizations to reserve package name prefixes for future uploads.
