Will the folks using forks be happy to switch to the stdlib version? For example I can imagine that if black wants to process 3.7 input code while running on 3.6, it might prefer a parser on PyPI even if the stdlib version were public, since the PyPI version can be updated independently of the host Python. -n -- Nathaniel J.
