[Distutils] PEP 571: Any further manylinux2010 concerns or questions?

[Trishank Kuppusamy]

Hi Nick,

Long time no see --- hope everything is well on your side :)

First of all, thanks Mark, Thomas, and everyone else for your hard work on
manylinux2010 --- I'm excited about this release, as I'm sure many others
are!

This may be the wrong thread to discuss this, and I haven't looked too
deeply into it, but are there plans to support container-specific Linux
distros like Alpine that use musl instead of glibc? I'm guessing the answer
is "no," but I'm curious to hear what others think on the subject.

Happy Easter!

Thanks,
Trishank
