Correct if I'm wrong but distlib isn't targeting resources managent? distutils is targeted to distribute python modules/packages instead; small differences but on the field they really mean different things.
distlib is intended to target more than resource management, but it's not a full-blown packaging system. Rather, it's intended to implement common pieces of functionality needed by packaging systems in a hopefully non-controversial and useful way.
distlib is under http://hg.python.org/distlib too :O
Actually the BitBucket repo is more active and readthedocs has the latest docs, but I do periodically update the above repo on hg.python.org.
