Cheers!

This is blocked on work in pyo3 and cffi: #11436 (comment)

As There's no actual work for us to do here, we're not going to keep an open issue for it.

PyO3 0.23 is coming out soon and I'd like to start looking at low-hanging issues towards supporting a free-threaded Python.

OK to open a new issue to track that now?

[alex]

If there's something to track beyond "wait for pyo3 0.23", then yes, I'm happy to have an issue.

[ngoldbaum]

So for free-threading I think we might need to wait on python-cffi/cffi#126, but we can at least work on the rust side of things by updating the rust code to support PyO3 0.23. I'll open an issue specifically for that.

How does cryptography make use of cffi? I see https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/blob/main/src/_cffi_src/build_openssl.py and https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/blob/main/src/_cffi_src/utils.py, but I don't really understand how they're used or their purpose.

At this point the use is fairly deminimus within cryptography itself, but the bindings are used by pyopenssl
