Our reading of the sentiment in the discussion +thread is that, while the problems this PEP attempts to solve are valid, most folks would prefer a +different approach. Specifically, our read is that most users would prefer more control over the +ability to specify multiple indexes, how those indexes interoperate, and the priority and trust +assertions for those indexes. For example, solutions such as :pep:`766` may provide a better way +forward. Existing stop gap measures (e.g. PyPI limit increase requests and the `"wheel-stub" +`_ approach) are sufficient -- if not ideal -- in the +meantime. The authors wish to thank everyone who contributed to the constructive discussion, and +especially those who showed their support for this PEP, both in public and private. + Rationale =========
