Agreed. In spite of the fact that I've been part of the pushback you've had over flit's approach, I nevertheless feel that flit is a major step forward in providing a user-friendly project packaging tool for Python. Even if you don't wish to continue developing flit, I hope that someone takes up the reins and continues to develop the ideas introduced with flit, of having a straightforward, "do the simplest thing needed" approach to packaging the majority of projects. > Either way, thanks for all the effort you put in! Agreed, and my apologies for any contribution my feedback may have made to the pressure you felt that led you to this decision.
