So, this is just to let everyone know that any setuptools variant (including a future release of PJE's setuptools) that respects the PYTHONPATH will get at least two users!
As I've said before, if somebody creates a patch that addresses the use cases I pointed out, I'd be happy to accept it. Please see: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2008-November/010533.html and the thread surrounding it for details. Making it sound like I simply reject patches in this area with no reason, isn't at all helpful, and I'd appreciate it if you stop doing so. Perhaps you could solicit volunteers to help develop an appropriate patch, propose possible approaches, etc., or ask for clarification if my previous explanations of what the patch needs to do are not clear.
