Folks:
Part of this patch documents the existence of the "Framework ::
Setuptools Plugin" classifier and says when to use it.
Another part documents the naming conventions which the developers of
the various revision control plugins agreed to.
Regards,
Zooko
P.S. Note that the git and hg revision control plugins didn't yet go
through a renaming to conform to the agreed convention. I did for
the setuptools_darcs plugin that I maintain -- you can see the
leftover evidence of it here:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools_darcs_plugin
I'm Cc:'ing the maintainers of the setuptools-git and setuptools-hg
plugins to remind them of the existence of this convention in case
they want to switch.
