This is the hole https://python-packaging-user-guide.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ is supposed to fill - once it's "ready" (i.e. things have stabilised sufficiently , then I'd like to replace the "Installing Python Modules" and "Distributing Python Modules" sections for 2.7 and 3.3 with some *very* abbreviated quick start guides that then reference that site. The 3.3 changes would then carry over into 3.4. I spent some time at PyCon AU talking to Matthew Iverson ( https://bitbucket.org/Ivoz/python-packaging-user-guide) who I believe Marcus was hoping to get back to that after pip 1.4 was out the door, but anyone on the PyPA list on BitBucket actually has full access to accept pull requests, etc. Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | [email protected] | Brisbane, Australia
