Hey Nick, I agree with everything above, except that I'd probably put
myself more in Glyph's camp :). Can't speak for Skip though...
I was actually looking at something Fred wrote and managed to misread it
as something you had posted - and it turns out Skip was just agreeing
with Fred about the 'provide an option to tell distutils to use a
different user-specific directory name than the default one' idea, and
isn't particularly worried about where the packages go by default.
Sorry for the confusion.
Cheers,
Nick.
