Congratulations on reaching such a milestone. Two nitpicks on your release
tarball:
1) Standard practice is to include a base directory in the tarball, so that when
the user unpacks it, everything isn't dumped into the current directory, but
rather into its own, self-contained subdirectory. I don't know exactly how you
made your tarball, but this would be as simple as instead of doing this:
cd Croizat-1.00b
tar czf Croizat-1.00b.tar.gz *
doing this (from the parent directory to Croizat-1.00b):
tar czf Croizat-1.00b.tar.gz Croizat-1.00b
2) You should exclude the *.pyc files from your released tarball.
