I meant listing all releases that can be installed via command "easy_install package==release". If hidden versions can't be installed this way I don't want them listed. The problem as I see it is that although easy_install can find all possible versions they are not listed on PyPI. I think this kind of asymmetry is bad for usability. I would like to work out this problem in two steps. First, port package_releases RPC to WWW interface (which will list all non-hidden versions). Second, use setuptools mechanisms to discover additional versions in package description (as described here: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools#making-your-package-available-for-easyinstall). First is straightforward and second a bit harder, as I don't know setuptools codebase as well as PyPI's. This all can hopefully be worked out.
