Phillip, Thanks for the pointer. I am have been rereading the documentation on easy_install this week. I have one other question for you. Have you envisioned a workflow that interacts with RPM's or other package management systems? I know my company uses RPM's for example to package up our Python Packages, and many shops use RPM and/or debian packaging systems.
