Hey,
I just wanted to summarize what we've started at the sprint (and hopefully finish 1 to 7 this week):
1/ distutils2 is merged as the "packaging" Python package in the standard library 2/ distutils2 will provide a "pysetup" script in Python to run all packaging tools (pysetup is a wrapper that will run "packaging.run.main") 3/ pkgutil gets the new API (PEP 376) we implemented in distutils2._backport 4/ sysconfig installations paths are moved to a sysconfig.cfg file. 5/ the sysconfig,cfg file will be located besides sysconfig.py in the standard library 6/ sysconfig will lookup for sysconfig.cfg in several places and merge sections from down to bottom: 1/ current directory 2/ per-user site-packages 3/ global site-packages 7/ a backport for 2.4 to 3.2 will be provided for "packaging" using the "distutils2" name 8/ we will release distutils2 in the next 18 months 9/ once 3.3 is out, the backport will just get bug fixes
Cheers Tarek
