Add #7208 to the list, it also needs a core release first though.

[Minor] Maybe 1.4 could be a time to introduce

• Create an official Poetry badge #7270 ?

I am working on it, however, I don't see the badge as something that has to be strictly connected to the Poetry release

Suggestion to add in the list "Nice to have":

• Fix incorrect sys.argv[0] path when calling project scripts #6737

python-poetry/cleo#299 Let's add this to the mix (I will make a new Cleo release with that fix)

Would it be possible to add #7184 to the list here?

This is already being covered by python-poetry/cleo#299

Ah, perhaps I'm confused. #7184 is about the case where a tty is allocated, but has zero width/height. python-poetry/cleo#299 says it covers the case where no tty is allocated. Is the thinking that ultimately, the cleo fix will nonetheless address #7184?

[caemor]

It would be great to include a fix for normal users for #1917, since this currently stops us from using poetry for student projects with the various errors on different systems.
