Hi,
I have uploaded the NumPy 1.7.0 source distribution to pypi:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/numpy/1.7.0
I did it by uploading the file PKG-INFO from numpy-1.7.0.tar.gz. It said "Error processing form. Form Failure; reset form submission" about 3x times, but on the 4th try it went through. I reported the issue here:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3604194&group_id=66...
I then attached the numpy-1.7.0.tar.gz and numpy-1.7.0.zip source files.
Now I am having trouble attaching the windows installers, just like they are here:
Those installers are ones built through bdist_wininst. You should *not* upload superpack installers there, as most python tools will not know what to do with it. For example, easy_install will not work with those, even though it does with simple installers from bdist_wininst.
So ideally, one should build simple (== bdist_wininst-generated) installers using the lowest common denominator for architecture (i.e. pure blas/lapack, not atlas), and the superpack installer on sourceforge. Incidentally, that's why the super pack installer uses a different filename, to avoid confusion.
I see. I looked into my scripts and it turns out that actually I do build the bdist_wininst versions as well, I just didn't know what they are for, so I ignored them. Now I can see that those will get uploaded to pypi, so I did that now and it works!

I learned something new today, thanks for the explanation. So pypi should be done.
Great, thanks a lot for doing all this !
