Target date: end november 2023

wanted:

• packages:
  • Torch-2.1.1
  • numpy-1.26.2, with Array API v2022.12 support
• infrastructure :
  • a beta and partial Python-3.12 (missing 20% of packages: eco-system struggles, far from mature)

focus:

• reduce speed debt in ipython : Jedi-0.19 / ruff / spyder-5.5
• reduce winpython build effort: mamba ? or less "anticipation" ? "rye" (experiment) seems the equivalent of "mamba" for pip

postpone:

• python-3.13 alpha series : 3.13a2 not yet interesting

exploratory:

• llm on local, ragna on ...
• Onnx again
• Spyder Qt6 progress to get rid of next biggest technical debt Qt5
• thinking on next technical debts
  • nullsoft icons
  • dos
  • tcl/tk
  • ... ideal may be to have WinPython down to a simple requirements.txt, ...
  • ... or/and..., github actions looks the path from requirements to binary published

direction:

• speed: python-3.13 with multi-interpreters, free-threads, small jit
• local data-science: numpy-2, polars, duckdb-1, array-api, rust packages
• local AI: torch, llm, windows-ai
• universality: jupyterlite, jupyterlab-4, pyscript, web-apps
