The PEP 370 (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0370) "per user site packages directory" has several open questions:
- Are the directories for Windows, Mac and Unix fine?
- Mac: Should framework and non-framework builds of Python use the same directories?
- The patch also adds a usecustomize hook to site. Is it useful and should it stay?
- Should the site package directory also be ignored if process gid != effective gid?
- Should the Windows installer add %APPDATA%/Python/Scripts to PATH?
- Should the base directory be configurable with an environment variable like PYTHONUSERHOME?
A CC of the mail goes to the authors of setuptools, virtual python, working env and virtual env. What's your opinion on the PEP? Do you have some input and advice for me?
