I've just gotten around to looking at migrating a project to Python 3.11 and upon `pip install -r requirements-dev.txt` I'm seeing there are no lxml Python 3.11 wheels on PyPi, which leads to `pip` trying to compile it locally, and I of course don't have the requirements installed. Whilst I could address the latter for my local environment that won't help with building on GitHub for releases (we use `lxml` specifically to build a WiX configuration file for the building an installer). Any timeline on making Python 3.11 wheels available ?

I checked PyPI lxml build distribution and it does have python 3.11 wheels for linux but not for Windows or MacOS. However, I have the same question regarding a timeline for cp311 wheels for Windows.

Ah, indeed, I should have made it explicitly clear that I was talking about lxml on Windows, not any other OS. I was going off the fact that attempting the `pip install` causes it to try to compile locally (no libxml dev files installed, so that doesn't work), and `Python::3.11` isn't yet listed under "Programming Language" on https://pypi.org/project/lxml/ .

Ah, and now I've found https://bugs.launchpad.net/lxml/+bug/1977998 which is discussing this.
