The last item is not true: Tarek is not the author (that’s Ian Bicking)
nor one of the current maintainers.  The item should however mention
that Tarek forked distutils as distutils2 and started a new package
manager inside distutils2: pysetup.  This will be the first package
manager to ship with standard Python (in 3.3).

Cheers
