As far as how to fix it I don't have a particularly magic answer. I will try to be more mindful of my tone and that distutils-sig is likely not my adversary anymore as well as try to ask questions instead of arguing the relevance immediately.
Thank you - both for the thoughtful response and the explanation of what is going on in your thinking. I certainly tend to think about possible issues rather than benefits, maybe more than I should as I don't personally have any particular problems with a rapid pace of change (except in some specific areas where I'm in so much of a minority that I don't expect my concerns to be a big driver in the grand scheme of things). I think I'm doing this to make sure people haven't missed potential issues I'm aware of, but I can easily imagine that this comes across as negative "stop energy". I'll try to stick to issues where I have genuine concerns, and not theoretical ones in future. And yes, it does feel like distutils-sig of 2013 is a much nicer place than it used to be. Thanks to everyone for working to keep that the case. Paul
