I've recently released version 0.2.9 of distlib on PyPI [1]. For newcomers,distlib is a library of packaging functionality which is intended to beusable as the basis for third-party packaging tools. The main changes in this release are as follows: * Updated default PyPI URL to https://pypi.org/pypi. * Relaxed metadata format checks to ignore 'Provides'. * Fixed #33, #34: simplified script template. * Fixed #115: Relaxed check for '..' in wheel archive entries by not  checking filename parts, only directory segments. * Fixed #116: Corrected parsing of credentials from URLs. * Fixed #122: Skipped entries in archive entries ending with '/' (directories)  when verifying or installing. * Commented out Disqus comment section in documentation. A more detailed change log is available at [2]. Please try it out, and if you find any problems or have any suggestions for improvements,please give some feedback using the issue tracker!
