This is not true. Please don't spread it, and I'd appreciate it if you'd kindly issue a retraction in any other forum where you've spread it. Thanks.

My sincere apologies. I was under the impression that it was not being maintained. It'd be great if you could point me towards the main setuptools trunk. However, I have not worded this out on any other forum, so that should'nt be a problem. :) Cheers Zubin

I find your behavior outrageous and counter productive for the packaging community. What is your definition of "maintained" ? I consider that setuptools is not maintained, despite your 2/3 latest commits in reaction of the fork. Doing a svn log on your project is enough to see this. No real activity in the last 2/3 years. I will continue to say that this is not what I call maintaining a software, especially since you have locked its maintenance. So I will personnaly spread it everywhere. Use Distribute.
