--- Comment #18 from Martin Wilke <miwi at FreeBSD.org> ---
Hi,

Actually I was about to commit that wheel framework to ports the other day, but
decided to keep it on hold, for 2 reasons,

1) flavors will enter the ports tree very soon, which will solve many problems
in particular with multiple concurrent py versions which means bigger changes
to the python framework is needed. 

2) I agree with John that bundled pip/setuptools might be a step backwards in
terms of security because if pip or setuptools got a security problem we will
have to wait till pythonxX catches up on that. Which is most likely a bad idea.

That all said I think it's better to wait till flavors enters the portstree and
address this issue together with the needed changes to the python framework.

- Martin
