Description

in .travis.yml:

  • Build Python 3.10 wheels
  • Perform the wheel builds regularly, so we know when something breaks
  • Document the separate travis.yml file in the wiki (e.g. "we use Travis for aarch64 because github actions don't support aarch64 builds yet")

Research direction
The issue outlines three tasks in .travis.yml: build Python 3.10 wheels, set up regular builds, and document the separate Travis file in the wiki. Start by examining the existing .travis.yml configuration in the repository root. Note that the issue is from 2022, so verify whether GitHub Actions now supports aarch64 (as hinted) and consider updating the approach. Implement the checklist items, ensuring to add a cron job or similar trigger for regular builds. Update the wiki with the rationale for using Travis for aarch64.
