- distribute.entrypoints: that's the old pkgresources entry points system, but on its own. it uses distribute.resources Why not get it into the core as distutils.entrypoints? That's where it belongs... What do you call 'core' ? distutils.core ?
Sorry, mean stdlib. distutils.entrypoints would seem to be the sensible place.
- distribute.index: that's packageindex and a few other things. everything required to interact with PyPI. We will promote its usage and see if Pip wants to use it as a basis. Why not call in "pypi.client" and "pypi.server" or, better yet, get it into the stdlib as disutils.index.client distutils.index.server? We are keeping a "distribute." namespace for all bits.
Why?
In any case, the splitting is occuring now and is not written in the stone, so we can talk about this in Distutils-SIG, and improve it with your feedback.
Shame there hasn't been any discussion of this recently on distutils-sig...
