That looks like a mistake. An sdist must be uploaded to PyPI, after the
wheels are uploaded. That just seems to have been forgotten for rc2.

Also, I had expected the sdist to be the .tar.gz format, I can't find it
back but IIRC that's what we decided in the past. It's smaller, and it's
what pretty much all other projects do.

Cheers,
