as it stands,

--lockfile-generator=pex

is the default in

2.12.x

, and so will gain some more exposure in

2.12.0

. since the deprecation required the flag to be set explicitly, this will only really affect new users, or those who opt in. but we should likely still be cautious about timing to ensure that capable folks (read: @enough-analyst-54434) are likely to be around for the potential uptick in new issues. since

2.12

doesn’t have a whole lot else in it, we probably have a bit more flexibility around timing… and so could maybe agree on a rough date now (subject to bumps for blockers). cc @hundreds-father-404, @bitter-ability-32190, @happy-kitchen-89482

My thinking is Pex may still have bugs, but likely far fewer than Poetry (VCS requirements, private indexes, certs, transitive deps & env markers, preleases, bad cache folder). I think Pex is a good default And Pex has much better perf when installing

oh yea, this isn’t a question of whether it should be the default… just one of timing.

I'm effectively AFK all of June.

heh, indeed

If we have Pex issues, folks can always switch back to Poetry. I agree w/ not removing Poetry yet Or you, me, and Benjy can step up and fix the Pex issue

so then maybe it is a question of our confidence in the ability of the rest of us to address the issues we will see based on the new set of users
