They're also all pure namespace packages rather than base + addons, which is what we've been discussing... But from Martin's email I understood it more as being base packages. Unless I misunderstood, of course. If correct, which is it?

The list I gave you was a list of distributions that include namespace packages (using the setuptools mechanism). I don't think that any of them has the notion of a base package, as the setuptools mechanism doesn't support base packages.
