[Python-Dev] Reject or update PEP 243? (original) (raw)

I just noticed that the 2.5 What's New references PEP 243 in relation to the distutils' "upload" command, but in fact the upload command implements a different mechanism entirely. About the only thing the PEP and implementation have in common is that they do a POST to python.org/pypi and have a protocol_version field of "1". Nothing else is the same.

Perhaps someone who knows how the actual implementation works could rewrite the PEP, or write another one?
