I can understand that. I am very frustrated too because in the last threads, whenever we are speaking about design, it seems that on your side and David side, dropping Distutils seems like a post-condition to everything. Even if I have made some proposals on some concrete design changes. Who's "we" by the way ? The Scons project ? or the numpy.distutils project ?
