Distutils is pretty much an expectation nowadays for Python packages. If not by 1.0, then soon after. If we combine that with a test suite, people will be able to install, test and uninstall Webware with the standard Python package tools. (Although distutils doesn't seem to have ai built-in uninstall support yet.) Plus Webware will then be ready for when a CPAN-stype package-finder-downloader-installer becomes available. What about removing the ability to run Webware directly from the install directory? It seems cleaner to force people to run MakeAppWorkDir and keep their configuration files separate from the installation. That would also make for a cleaner upgrade. Or is it too draconian? -- -Mike (Iron) Orr, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (if mail problems: [EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://iron.cx/ English * Esperanto * Russkiy * Deutsch * Espan~ol _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
