I have to say I prefer pypi myself.. I think it's a great idea subtitling it 'cheeseshop' but referring to it directly as "cheeseshop" is confusing at best. I've already had a few requests to change the text of the link on the home page to 'packages' or 'package index'. Tim Parkin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
