He seems to be offline and the people on the distutils list have some patches and other things which would be nice to have in distutils for 2.1.
Greg's somewhere near the end of the process of moving from Virginia to Canada; I expect he'll become visible again Real Soon.
Great :)
I suppose we could simply check in the patches, but we still want to get his OK on things before applying patches to the distutils tree.
The distutils SIG could elect a Shadow Dictator in his place; if everyone agrees to vote for Andrew, you save the effort of counting votes <wink>.
Ok, let's agree to vote for Andrew :) Andrew, is that OK with you ? -- Marc-Andre Lemburg ______________________________________________________________________ Company: http://www.egenix.com/ Consulting: http://www.lemburg.com/ Python Pages: http://www.lemburg.com/python/

I've been experiencing some weird problems with the distutils installation of pybsddb3 out of the current Python cvs tree. It'd be nice if the outstanding distutils patches are integrated before I dive in. I don't see anything relevant in patches or bugs, but I don't know if there are other repositories of distutils fixes (like the archives?). -Barry

There are a few patches buried in the back archives, but I don't know of any outstanding bugfixes, so please report whatever problem you're seeing. Oh, and Barry, did the issue holding up your patch for adding shar support (#102313) ever get resolved? --amk

To add to this, he apparently has a (very slow) ISP connection again, since he sent an e-mail to the internal MEMS Exchange developer list, but he sent only a single message, so I assume he's not attempting to claw through his e-mail backlog just yet.
Andrew, is that OK with you ?
I suppose so. I've tagged the current Lib/distutils tree with the tag "pre_amk", so Greg can readily determine what's been changed, and will begin looking at the various patches. --amk
