The TurboGears web framework, and other Python web frameworks like wsgi,
use Python eggs, easyinstall, setuptools, distutils, buildutils, paste,
and other systems to package code and manage plug-ins for web servers,
template engines, and other components.

I've been wondering how the Python version of SimCity can expose a bunch
of different plug-in interfaces, like zones, disasters, editing tools,
and locate resources and compiled Python extensions associated with each
plug-in, etc.
And how can the development tool and other Python based visual
programming languages support programming and packaging plug-ins?
I'd appreciate it if anyone who understands that stuff could please
point out some good web pages about Python plug-in frameworks, explain
some of the issues and solutions available to Python programmers, or
describe the big picture behind the design of setuptools, Python eggs,
paste, etc!
