You know what though, I kinda lied. While I don't care about the implementation, I *do* care about keeping this process moving forward. Holger has a PEP that's essentially done (if controversial), and Donald's offered to implement it. The PyCon sprints next week means we'll have a ton of focused attention, so there's a very good chance if we strike now we'll have this done in the next couple weeks. So yeah, I'm going to back the proposal that has a critical mass behind it, and it solves the problem. My experience with Python packaging is that there's a massive amount of inertia, so I think it's pretty vital to get work done while there are people who've got time to work on it. Not to put too fine a point on it, but unless there's actually something really wrong with Holger's proposal I can't see why we'd want to wait for some hypothetically better solution.
