I find your behavior outrageous and counter productive for the
packaging community.

What is your definition of "maintained" ?

I consider that setuptools is not maintained, despite your 2/3 latest
commits in reaction of the fork.  Doing a svn log on your project is
enough to see this. No real activity in the last 2/3 years.

I will continue to say that this is not what I call maintaining a
software, especially since you have locked its maintenance.

So I will personnaly spread it everywhere.

Use Distribute.
