It's not a problem with the metadata.

My project includes a text file containing doctests, and I foolishly 
converted the text file to Windows line endings just before releasing 
it. To my disappointment, doctest.testfile fails to cope with Windows 
line endings in text documents, which I didn't discover until *after* 
making the release.

(Serves me right for not running my full test suite after an 
insignificant change that "couldn't break anything".)

I don't believe this is a serious enough problem to rush through a new 
release, but I would like to leave a note on the project page where 
people can see it.

I've been told off-list that PyPI does not support package maintainers 
making comments on their own projects. Is that correct? Is the only way 
I can make a comment to use a sock puppet account?
