Don't worry about it; there's always a certain amount of release flutter taking place for other packages. It just takes a while to get the procedures down. I was more worried about the prospect of one release per commmit per project, or even daily snapshots of every project in Zope. :) >It isn't my intention to provide daily builds.

Well, different strokes for different folks. I prefer to bump the alpha or beta number, since a short number is easier for humans to refer to; it's annoying to have to ask if someone has 0.6a9dev-r19684, versus something like 0.6a9snap3. The latter can be done with tag_build='snap3' in your setup.cfg, modulo the "register" issue we've already discussed. But of course your practices are up to you; I just mention this as an idea to make communications about your projects a little easier, at the cost of editing setup.cfg (or overriding --tag-build on the command line) when you do a release. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
