I like the BSOL idea, but in that case what will the package extension be
instead of .egg? camelot.python.org has the advantage of suggesting an
obvious extension: .graal
So you go to the Camelot to get the graal (or one of them :). In case this
catches on, I'd like to upload ASAP one of my packages [1] called "wholy".
PS "Grail" was a web browser written in Python (or an attempt at one).
[1] It's mostly useless but I trust wholy.graal will be downloaded by
millions.
