Yeah; at the moment, easy_install seems to be the most common way to get Python packages, and distutils seems to be the simplest, most common way to create them. From what I gather the Python packaging landscape is in flux, but when there's a good replacement for distutils and easy_install, I'll be happy to include it. > Maybe move licensing to be nearer choosing a project host. > You often have to have already chosen a license when you choose > a host, so putting them together makes sense. I added a pointer to the license section at the beginning, but licensing can be a bit daunting and I don't want to scare anybody off too soon. :) > Mention Pyflakes and Pychecker when you mention Pylint?

Thanks, I didn't know it was a pain for Windows users. I'm going to go make Windows installers for my own packages. -John _______________________________________________ Doc-SIG maillist - Doc-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/doc-sig
