Good morning!
I think that a link to the pyenv project should be be added to the Python Download page, perhaps under the "Other parties have re-packaged CPython" section.
The entry could appear as:
* Pyenv (pyenv lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python)
Sincerely,
Nick Jensen

Strong -1 due to name collision with the pyenv in py3. --Noah

Ah, I assumed this *was* the pyenv that was bundled in py3 but also available separately (I thought). I agree that the name clash makes it confusing and unsuitable for linking to from the downloads page. Michael

I think they are asking about https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv, which is a Python port of the Ruby rbenv tool, so I see where the name came from just unfortunate that it collides :( --Noah
