Hello, I'd like to volunteer for that part given the fact that I am currently working on the patches for the mirroring thing in a branch of PyPI. The work is described here : http://wiki.python.org/moin/PEP%20374 It changed a bit and I need to update it, but you get the idea there. I also have some work going on for distutils. You have a summary of the work going on in my blog http://tarekziade.wordpress.com/2008/11/26/python-package-distribution-my-current-work/ Regards Tarek > > Champion needed. > > > 16:00 - 17:30 > ============= > > Free space for sprinting, hacking, further discussion, etc. > > > 18:00-ish > ============= > > Group dinners. > _______________________________________________ > Python-Dev mailing list > Python-Dev@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev > Unsubscribe: > http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/ziade.tarek%40gmail.com > -- Tarek Ziadé | Association AfPy | www.afpy.org Blog FR | http://programmation-python.org Blog EN | http://tarekziade.wordpress.com/ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
