Hello If no one objects, I'll promote Tools/scripts/pysetup3 to a top level script that gets installed in scripts/ like 2to3, pydoc etc.. That way, people will be able to use it directly when installing, removing projects, or studying what's installed Cheers Tarek -- Tarek Ziadé | http://ziade.org

Cool. Now I'm trying to remember if it was a list discussion or the language summit where you got the initial consensus on that approach... Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia

A few other reasons that were not mentioned previously: - In 2.4, we can’t run “-m distutils2.run”, but a pysetup2.4 script works - It’s nice for users to have something shorter than “python3.3 -m packaging.run run sdist” (I like to take “make” as the ideal goal) - It sends a message that we care about packaging (personal opinion) Regards
