We (the gentoo scheme people) would like to provide eggs via our packaging system.
There are various reasons for this, among which standardizing location - we have inbuilt safeguards against unsafe code compilation since the whole distro is source-based - separating major version egg location, providing upgrades without needing to check eggs-unlimited manually for changes... However, in order to do this /properly/, we need the egg filenames to include version information. I won't go into the details, but i'll just say that without that, we'd have to use our existing mechanisms for live (cvs/snv/git/etc) packages, and these would be unsatisfactory, both from a packager and a user point of view, when it comes to eggs. I realize this is a non-trivial change to your system, but do you think there's a chance this might happen, sometime in the future?
