Hello Let's write PEPs ! I started to write a new PEP (well a wiki page in fact...) that describes a new package called "pypi" that would be dedicated to package registering and uploading mechanisms. It would also provide enhancements like a proper password hash, or deepers metadata controls http://wiki.python.org/moin/A_new_pypi_module Any opinions about this PEP ? I tried to include all the problems people are having with register and upload. I linked it here in the page where I am trying to summarize the current state of distutils http://wiki.python.org/moin/Distribute (work in progress) Regards Tarek -- Tarek Ziadé | Association AfPy | www.afpy.org Blog FR | http://programmation-python.org Blog EN | http://tarekziade.wordpress.com/
