The use of distutils should not imply the use of PyPI. Perhaps we'd want distutils to issue a warning when building a distribution if the naming conventions weren't acceptable, but that's the most we'd want. That should be something that could easily be turned off for a site or an individual. -Fred -- Fred L.
