   PyPi isn't a code repository, like CPAN or SourceForge.
It's mostly a collection of links.

   Take a look at CPAN, Perl's package repository. That's
well organized and useful.  Modules are stored in a common archive
after an approval process, and can be downloaded and installed
in a standard way.

"easy_install" generally isn't easy.  It has some built-in
assumptions about where things are stored, assumptions which
often don't hold true.
