There's another point I was thinking about in PEP 376
What about dropping the 'egg' part in 'PROJECT.egg-info' ? and replace it with
'PROJECT.info'
(and make the 2.7 version compatible with PROJECT.egg-info )
I know it's a minor change,
Actually, it's a major change, since it means dropping backward compatibility with existing tools.
well if Distutils 2.7 / 3.1 keeps backward compatibility like I said, that would give 3 years for existing tools to change.. But what about the idea ? Regards Tarek -- Tarek Ziadé | http://ziade.org
