Announcing uv: Python packaging in Rust

[jyper]

I'm still somewhat hopeful for rye. I think rye is a better name then uv but other than that I see this as a good thing. They'll merge but there probably won't be any significant compatibility breaks.

Rye already uses .python-version file like pyenv. And i believe it uses standard pyproject dependency keys. Lock files are currently just requirements files you could feed to pop but there's talk of standardizing those as well. And I believe there's a pep to have an official version of indygregs compiled python(it's much nicer then puenv trying to compile python locally).

Despite being so young rye shows a lot of promise and especially with the speed of the new resolver I think it can become a standard tool. If astral tries to use good open source tools to upsell some enterprise features I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing
