Hi, I just wanted to announce the release of collective.eggproxy ( http://pypi.python.org/pypi/collective.eggproxy/0.2.0)
collective.eggproxy is a smart mirror for PyPI. It will collect packages on PyPI only when a program like easy_install or zc.buildout asks for it. In other words, unlike some mirrors that act like rsync and get the whole PyPI base (more than 5 gigas) collective.eggproxy will only get what you need. At first run collective.eggproxy downloads pypi index and builds a page of links. When a software asks for a specific package, version, etc. collective.eggproxy downloads it if needed and stores it locally. Want to give a try ? try it in two lines with easy_install: $ easy_install collective.eggproxy $ eggproxy_run That's it !
