I could be misremembering though.<br>

</span>I want to get something setup that would allow people to only need to upload<br>
a source release to PyPI and then have wheels automatically built for them<br>
(but not mandate that- Projects that wish it should always be able to control<br>
their wheel generation). I don’t know what that would specifically look<br>
like, if someone is motivated to work on it I’m happy to help figure out what<br>
it should look like and provide guidance where I can, otherwise it’ll wait<br>
until I get around to it.<br>
