Oh, they don't do dot releases anymore, its "CalVer" [1] - aka. Calendar Versioning, aka. release when we feel like it. And why did they do this:
> We just switched the project over to calver, with the explicit purpose of preventing [Kenneht Reitz] from making more than one release a day

- hyperion2010 8y agoDon't worry, each CalVer release still breaks things.

- trymas 8y agoI will be down-voted to hell, but sometimes I feel that KR hides behind the illness to avoid responsibility. KR told that he's just "good at marketing" and has "cult of personality" [0] and I do not see an edit that it was "KR the maniac" speaking and not the "KR the normal guy". Personally, today I'd better use `venv + pip` instead, of `pipenv`, but `pipenv` somehow was the "official" tool for package management for months, until people started discussing it [1]. I would like to have better packaging tools in python, but `pipenv` approach seemed really strange, now I know why. If you had manic episode and did some mistakes - go and try reverse them. Revert/change the commits. Apologise for the comments you've made. But no, let's get into the position of a victim, when someone criticises you. I believe that KR may have psychological problems and/or illnesses, but his "normal self" seems to be rather egomaniac too and takes bolder claims that he's comfortable to handle. If it would be otherwise - there would be no drama, there would be no fake "official" tools. KR could just enjoy his fame from `requests` and save his time while writing responses on his blog.
