It is also available at http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/ - which is where EasyInstall looks for it. (EasyInstall never uses query strings to access the package index, so that users can create and use alternative package indexes without needing any dynamic technologies; everything easy_install needs can be done with Apache directory indexes and perhaps some index.html files.) _______________________________________________ Catalog-sig mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/catalog-sig
