While watching various things at pycon today, I've started implementing support in setuptools for letting package_index.PackageIndex._download_url () use a pluggable entry point for download handler.
I was asked, 'why not use pip?' I'm pretty sure this functionality belongs in the direct interface to PyPI, which I understand is setuptools. Is this incorrect? (if interested, I'm publishing my work at git://kain.org/git/setuptools- dev.git, and http://kain.org/git/setuptools-dev.git/ This is very rough and incomplete at the moment, I intend to also implement entry points for approriate version-tagging options for generated .eggs) Thanks, /B _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
