Would it also be appropriate to nominate Cristoph for a Fellowship and/or community service award?

+1 Regarding the service of providing prebuilt wheels for Windows, it would be great to have this available in a similar way to what Ben Nuttall and Dave Jones are doing with piwheels for the RaspberryPi: https://www.piwheels.org/ https://github.com/piwheels/piwheels Provided someone steps up to build and run such a website, I'm sure the PSF would love to provide funds to back it up or find sponsors willing to support it.

Kind regards, Steve

Hi dear PSF coMembers,

Christoph Gohlkes Windows Binaries are nearing end of Life

============================== Updated on 12 June 2022 at 20:19 UTC.

*Funding for the Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics has ceased. This service will be discontinued before July 2022. *==============================* *

those packages proved quite valuable for Python on Windows users without C-Compiler (many) or not enough build-knowledge to build their packages (even more)

Is there at least a chance of conserving what is there on PSF level?

Cheers

Harald
