Am I right in thinking that there is a duplication of information in having an eggified product's version number stored in setup.py and version.txt?

Having your setup.py read its version from version.txt is easy, if you don't want to update two places.

I think the more interesting question is, why we need a persistent registry of installed products and any information about them at all anymore?

Having the product registry persistent causes quite some trouble when moving Data.fs across servers and doesn't seem to add much to any benefit.

For what kind of use-case do people use that registry nowadays, since we got rid of persistent products?
