I think Nick has broadly hinted that he would welcome someone else picking up the task of extending PEP 453 to Python 2.7. I don't have the time right at the moment to do it myself but I certainly am willing to backport to 2.7 the pieces of the implementation that I did. http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.devel/147836 > There's also https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py, which is better than an > MSI in almost every way IMHO. Definitely and that should work for 2.6 and 3.3 as well. -- Ned Deily, [email protected] _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
