As we are making cuda a namespace package and creating subpackages such as cuda.core (#70) and cuda.bindings (#75), each of which may have its own version, it makes sense for us to rethink the package structure.
This RFC proposes a way to restructure the components so as to allow users to install only the components that are needed. As a result, we can make the existing cuda-python become a meta package depending on the individual components. Visualizing with the fact that we actively maintain two major-version branches (currently CUDA 11 & 12, so X=12 below), we have the following diagrams:
Before cuda.core beta release:
cuda-python (X.Y.Z) cuda-python (X-1.Y'.Z')
\ \
\ \
v v
cuda-bindings (X.Y.Z) cuda-bindings (X-1.Y'.Z')
After cuda.core beta release:
cuda-python (X.Y.Z) cuda-python (X-1.Y'.Z')
/ \ / \
/ \ / \
v v v v
cuda.core --> cuda-bindings cuda.core --> cuda-bindings
(A.B.C) (X.Y.Z) (A.B.C) (X-1.Y'.Z')
This RFC is not impacting existing users in anyway (apart from what's already outlined in #75). This is purely an implementation detail to users. However, this allows advanced users and libraries to have the freedom to choose if they need cuda-python, cuda.core or just cuda.bindings (the cuda-python today). We also allow a more complex dependency diagram to grow organically under cuda-python.
Please let us know if you have any thoughts or concerns. Thanks!
