Zen of Python: There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
I would like to find a default for the description file of a python package. The sampleproject uses DESCRIPTION.rst https://github.com/pypa/sampleproject/blob/master/setup.py But I guess it is more common to use README.rst. For example django uses this file name. Any good reason to **not** use README.rst but a different name like DESCRIPTION.rst? Of course anyone can use the name he wants. I just want an agreement for the name to make life easier for newcomers. I will check this mail thread in a week or two and write a pull request to https://github.com/pypa/sampleproject/blob/master/setup.py if there is an agreement. If an agreement was found, which other documents should be updated?
