While conceptually these are becoming distinct entities, for end users they’re going to be part of the nebulous thing that is pip, and changes and for “core” bits, pip wouldn’t want to lose the ability to work on these bits of functionality directly.


Quick clarification— That’s not to suggest that any particular one of these libraries need to move under the PyPA banner at this point. Just that as a general rule of thumb, stuff that is core to pip, we’re going to want the above before we would likely accept a PR that switches pip over to using it (again, depending on how “core” it is).
