Next Steps:

• Drop bazel version increase (already done)
• Increment the minimum build version in make_wheel_macOS_arm64 to 12
• Increase the plat-name (as is done in this PR)

@kulinseth we're looking to publish macos ARM64 wheels for TFA, but have heard that the package will not resolve for Monterey users since it's plat-name is for macos-11. Given that M1 chips have better performance on macos-12 (I think?) we wanted to make sure that majority of users will be able to resolve a TFA for macos-12 built for ARM.

However, I noticed tensorflow-macos is still publishing macos-11 plat-names: https://pypi.org/project/tensorflow-macos/2.7.0/#files

1. Is there a plan to increase the OS of the tensorflow-macos build?
2. Also is it true that macos 12 users will not be able to resolve/install an earlier tensorflow-macos if it's labeled in pypi with a prior macos version? Thinking about this a bit more I'm confused since we publish our TFA x86_64 wheels for macos-10 and haven't heard this complaint.

@seanpmorgan , thanks for the issue:

@kulinseth we're looking to publish macos ARM64 wheels for TFA, but have heard that the package will not resolve for Monterey users since it's plat-name is for macos-11. Given that M1 chips have better performance on macos-12 (I think?) we wanted to make sure that majority of users will be able to resolve a TFA for macos-12 built for ARM.

These wheels should work on MacOS 12 as well. To make sure macos-11 users don't regress, we were releasing with plat-name macos-11.

However, I noticed tensorflow-macos is still publishing macos-11 plat-names: https://pypi.org/project/tensorflow-macos/2.7.0/#files

1. Is there a plan to increase the OS of the tensorflow-macos build?

https://pypi.org/project/tensorflow-macos/2.11.0/#files I think this has been addressed.

2. Also is it true that macos 12 users will not be able to resolve/install an earlier tensorflow-macos if it's labeled in pypi with a prior macos version? Thinking about this a bit more I'm confused since we publish our TFA x86_64 wheels for macos-10 and haven't heard this complaint.

These should work for macos-12 users. When releasing your wheels you want to release for the minimum deployment target for MacOS which is supported. The arm64 support has been added since macos-11, and some users had requested support on Macos-11, so we were releasing with that plat-name. But since then macos-12 and macos-13 stable versions have been released, so we have bumped it up to macos-12. Please let me know if there are any concerns.
