I'm pretty sure there is no way to remove a release (at least not routinely). thi sis by design -- if someone has done something with that particular release, we want it to be reproducible. I see the point, but it's a little be too bad -- I know I've got some releases up there that were replaced VERY soon due to a build error or some carelessness on my part :-) Apparently, disk space is cheap enough that PyPI doesn't need to worry about it.

I think until / if Nathanial (or someone :-) ) comes up with a standard way to make wheels of shared libs, we'll simply have to live with large binaries. -CHB -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov
