Prepatory snapshot before Distutils 1.1
I want to make a Distutils 1.1 release that wraps up the version of the code in Python 2.3. This would be the last 1.5.2-compatible release, giving people the chance to use the code with versions of Python from 1.5.2 to 2.2. The README and related bits have been updated, and I've made a snapshot release that can be downloaded from http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/files/ If someone wants to try it with an older version of Python, please do and report any problems. If no bugs turn up, I'll wrap it up as the 1.1 final release, tag the CVS tree, and then we can start making 1.5.2-incompatible changes. --amk

I haven't tried it (which is a shame) but isn't there the problem that wininst.exe will not be installed in the distutils/command directory by setup.py install? Having said that, IMO there should be a distutils command to do this... Has someone lying around a command to do this? Thomas
