I definitely use this. This way all my packages can get their dependencies from my own package index instead of PyPI. This gives a greater deal of control in dealing with users who are angry/frustrated when they can't reach PyPI for some reason. Though I think this will be less of an issue with PyPI mirror support. Though it's also nice to be able to release development packages that have dev versions of other packages as dependencies without having to put all my dev releases on PyPI. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
