It's an explicit choice. Namely, the choice to have the uploader specify what kind of file this is, and what version of Python it is for, and what release it belongs to. The dist* commands have that information available. Short of changing the upload command, it should be possible to write a "existing_dist" command which accepts a file name, guesses file type and Python version, and then allows users to do python setup.py existing_dist --file foo.tgz upload Regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Catalog-SIG mailing list Catalog-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/catalog-sig
