Do we want to ammend the PEP to switch the normalization around so that it normalizes 1.0c1 to 1.0rc1? This probably matches what people expect better in general? It wouldn't have any effect on sort order or the like, it would just change which form is preferred.
I'd typically expect to see 1.0rc1 rather than 1.0c1. I don't think it's a crisis either way, but I would mildly prefer it if this change was made. Paul
Given that it’s a fairly low impact change, We’ve got several pip developers +1 on it, Jason is OK with it on the setuptools side, and nobody has spoken out against it I’m going to go ahead and make this change.

Will get the libraries updated next.
setuptools 8.1 is out which has this in it and packaging 14.5 is as well. --- Donald Stufft PGP: 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
