[Distutils] [Python-Dev] pythonhosted.org upload no longer works

[Guido van Rossum]

Honestly I like readthedocs a lot, and I actually *don't* like docs
that look too much like the standard Python docs -- it should be clear
to readers (subliminally, through page style, not just be parsing the
URL) that they're reading third party docs.
