The current wheel on PyPI is listed as Python2 only. As this project is pure Python and supports both Python 2 and 3, it should be released as a universal wheel. As of now, Python 3 users do not get the benefits of the wheel package: * Faster installation * Avoids arbitrary code execution for installation by avoiding setup.py * Allows better caching for testing and continuous integration. * Creates .pyc files as part of installation to ensure they match the python interpreter used. * More consistent installs across platforms and machines.
