So I bit the bullet on the train this morning (what an odd phrase.... ;)

I have written a simple CGI and distutils extension that handles registration 
of distutils package metadata in a central index. The intention is that this 
system is run on python.org, mostly to lend it an air of officiality ;)

It's simple, it's bare-bones, it works:

I just figured we needed _something_ to get out there to start the ball 
rolling. And I'm serious about the python.org part...
