PyPI - release bpy whl for python 3.11
It's nice that `bpy``is available on - PyPI - pypi.org/project/bpy/ . But it's only available for python 3.10 for now. Is it possible to release whl for python 3.11 too?
I think many python users already switched to python 3.11 and it will beneficial for them given known 3.11 perfomance boost.
PS Never tried to build
bpy
module myself but does it require some changes to the module for compilation besides using other python version in the process?

The Blender as Py module is strongly tight to the Blender release. If the Blender release will support Python 3.11 it will become available.
Changing Blender 3.4 to support Python 3.11 means that Blender 3.4 must be migrated to use Python 3.11. Blender 3.5 will have support for Python 3.11 so we should only need to wait until it is released. The Python module is mostly updated within a week after the final release.
Sadly Blender 3.5 is bundled without Python 3.11
Support is not the same as bundled. You can compile Blender 3.5, point it to use your own Python 3.11 install and it should work.
Blender 3.5 comes bundled with 3.10 by default because it aligns with the VFX Platform 2023 .
I'll save the others a few clicks -- come back on March 19th.
