I don't understand. What's a "release link"? The links on the index page *do* go to the "project's active version pages", as specified (there aren't any numbered version pages) Jim left out that page entirely - are you saying it is impossible to provide such an index page with the page structure that Jim proposed? > $ easy_install -vvvi http://cheeseshop.python.org/simple Pywin32 > Searching for Pywin32 > Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/simple/Pywin32/ > Couldn't find index page for 'Pywin32' (maybe misspelled?) > Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while) > Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/simple/ > No local packages or download links found for Pywin32 I see that it doesn't work, but I cannot understand why. On http://cheeseshop.python.org/simple/ "pywin32" is clearly linked, so it should be able to resolve the misspelling. > Jim's already mentioned these, but the rel="" info (per the index API > spec's point #6), This is fixed. > and the links embedded in the long_description field > (per point #4) are missing. I have to think about this more. Is it correct that you want all href attributes of all a elements in the long_description? And how do you know what the long_description is from just looking at the rendered page?
