Frozen Releases
----------------

I started commenting this section until I saw the one below. I personally do not see much benefit from the frozen release. That said, it would be trivial to create one from the updateable version below. I have already scripts for this, which are checked in as part of Jim's PyPI mirror tool.

I don't understand why you believe you couldn't benefit from a frozen release.

If you don't have a frozen release, you always run the following risk:

* you release your code to someone else (another customer, or another developer)

* after this, someone uploads a new bugfix release for an egg which causes your code to break

* the customer, or another developer, installs the code, and it breaks, where it used to work when you released it.

This risk can never be completely eliminated without frozen releases.

Regards,

Martijn
