We might as well allow happy setuptools users to continue using setuptools. I don't care about making a pkg_resources console_scripts handler that does the same thing because we can just use the existing one.

I generally agree with this :) I just think that we need to close the loop on our current efforts before adding more things into the fray. The only major change to the eco system we've made so far that has actually *shipped* to end users is the distribute/setuptools merge and that's causing a lot of pain to people. Soon we'll at least have a pip version with prelim wheel support but I don't even know if it supports metadata 2.0 at all or not yet? I think there's a pre-release of wheel that does though? ----------------- Donald Stufft PGP: 0x6E3CBCE93372DCFA // 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA
