+Other Python implementations
+============================
+
+The PEP 511 should be implemented be all Python implementation. The AST
+emited by the parser is not specified.
+
+By the way, even between minor version of CPython, there are changes on
+the AST API. There are differences, but only minor differences. It is
+quite easy to write an AST transformer which works on Python 2.7 and
+Python 3.5 for example.
