It's kind of a moot question. OWSLib has a BSD license and OSGeo4W packagers are free to redistribute it. I think OSGeo4W might want to wait until we've completely harmonized the W*S and CSW APIs, and maybe even realize some of the huge refactoring potential (the raison d'etre of OWS, right?). OSGeo4W's release cycle is slow and its users (I presume) less experienced with Python. They'll be stuck with bugs and issues longer than developers pulling from PyPI.
