As one might expect, I would prefer it if folks got 9.0.1 as quickly as 
possible. In particular the feature that makes it easier for upstreams to drop
Python 2 support is one that is really only effective when people can consider
pip 9 a "minimum" version of pip to support. Getting it into the hands of folks
as quickly as possible would be a big boon to that.

I'm with Donald here.  It'll help both the Debian ecosystem to be more
closely aligned with the current tools as well as the Python ecosystem
since it'll help speed up the transition to Python3.  The more people
see the Debian Python packages as a viable option for deployment and
development, the better Python in Debian will be maintained since there
will be more people relying on the packages.

But of course, this decision also depends on how much work it would be.
I don't think pip 9 is an absolute requirement, but I do think its worth
some effort.

I'm starting to work on pip 9.0.1 but noticed two new dependencies.  appdirs
1.4.0 we have, but distro 1.0.1 we don't.  It doesn't look like there's an ITP
for that, so I'll file that bug.

Cheers,

Okay, as soon as python-distro clears new, I'll upload pip 9.0.1.
