Huh? Why? I just don't buy this. We've effectively had a bdfl pronouncement that setuptools is dead. distribute 0.6 *is* now the "live supported setuptools" so any project that relies on the package called "setuptools" should now be using the "distribute" distribution...

Are you being wilfully ignorant here, Chris?  he BDFL doesn't "control"
setuptools, because it is a *third party package*.

Why is why an area as fundamentally important as this should be in the stdlib and not at the whim of third party developers ;-)
