Hi Phil,

PyPI seems to have lifted the size limit for wheel files. This raises 
the question if you intend to include the Qt tools needed for 
development (designer, linguist and a few more) in PyQt6 like it was in 
the good old PyQt5 days. I am asking because PySide2 wheel do so and 
PyQt5/6 should not lag behind.

Regards,
Detlev
