[Python-Dev] PEP 370, open questions

[Christian Heimes]

The PEP 370 (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0370) "per user site
packages directory" has several open questions:

* Are the directories for Windows, Mac and Unix fine?
* Mac: Should framework and non-framework builds of Python use
  the same directories?
* The patch also adds a usecustomize hook to site. Is it useful and
  should it stay?
* Should the site package directory also be ignored if process
  gid != effective gid?
* Should the Windows installer add %APPDATA%/Python/Scripts to PATH?
* Should the base directory be configurable with an environment
  variable like PYTHONUSERHOME?

A CC of the mail goes to the authors of setuptools, virtual python,
working env and virtual env. What's your opinion on the PEP? Do you have
some input and advice for me?
