#otd 5 years ago, I announced the #SageMath Modularization & Packaging Summit. groups.google.com/g/sage-devel...
In this SageDays event, the community made a decision on the naming of modularized pip-installable #Python packages. It lives on in @passagemath.org's packages: passagemath-standard etc.

Thrilled to see that the @msys2org.bsky.social folks have started packaging passagemath for mingw-w64.
The native Windows packaging is enabled by the modularization of the #SageMath library in the passagemath project.
