[zc.buildout] bootstrap.py

Hi All, From what I can see, bootstrap.py is there if you don't want either setuptools or zc.buildout to end up in your site-packages. Am I right? If so, where is it's use documented and what's the "correct" way to get hold of bootstrap.py? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

Yes.

This is a hole in the documentation. It is documented briefly in the "work on a package" section.
and what's the "correct" way to get hold of bootstrap.py?
Many projects include it. I get it using svn: svn cat svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/zc.buildout/trunk/bootstrap/ bootstrap.py > bootstrap.py Jim -- Jim Fulton Zope Corporation
