It's entirely my fault; I'll put the old packages back up.

Eric, did you see this post yesterday?

http://compoundthinking.com/blog/index.php/2008/07/08/setuptools-package-indexes-and-releases/

It describes a recipe for turning a directory of eggs into a Python
package index. It might be useful to do something like this for MapFish,
and allow users to get a known good set with one command, like:

  $ easy_install -i http://.../mapfish/1 MapFish

(the mapfish/1 directory could contain GeoJSON==1.0a3 or any other
version you wanted.)

Sean
