1 Greetings, I'm working on g-pypi2 project over this summer for Gentoo,
2 and among other things, I learned a lot about how Gentoo handles Python
3 package distributions.

5 There are quite some students working on distutils2 implementations, so
6 I thought Gentoo as source distribution has a lot to say how would
7 upstream Python tools help towards better standard and API to make life
8 just a little bit easier.

10 I have put together a piratepad/etherpad for easier collaboration if
11 anyone is willing to drop his thoughts how Python distribution of
12 packages could be improved, follow the link
