Some comments: > "MANIFEST.in is fine" Except that it introduces Yet Another Domain Specific Language. Wtf does "prune" mean? It's not obvious. The docs indicate that it actually excludes, but why it's not called "exclude" is then strange. We already have a language, Python. We don't need more. ;-) And the fact that is uses a separate file doesn't help. Yes, I know I'm just whining. But I don't agree that MANIFEST.in is fine. I think it is unfine. :) > Like Bill, he is unable to launch the sdist command because he will probably > get a incomplete list of files.
