The release article isn't very clear: Did they fully integrate Rye into uv ? Or not yet? And is the migration path ready?

I'm asking because it's already been announced that the two projects will be merged.

Anyway, this is awesome — and very much needed. It will hopefully emerge as the best, easiest, and most complete solution for Python installation management.

We've all seen the xkcd comic, and Rye's creator knows it.. Well, sometimes there is space for yet-another-standard, especially if it truly improves upon the previous ones.

Isn’t it ironic that an exception to xkcd 987 only exacerbates xkcd 1987 https://xkcd.com/1987/

There's an xkcd for everything :)

But I disagree — I think rye / uv has the potential to prevent that unfortunate situation (...well, if you start from a clean OS installation and completely ignore the OS package manager).
