And of course I meant import-sig.

I think restarting the discussion anew here on distutils-sig is appropriate.

Martin has asked me to decide on PEP 382 vs. PEP 402 (namespace packages) in time for inclusion of the decision in Python 3.3. As people who attended the language-sig know, I am leaning towards PEP 402 but I admit that at this point I don't have enough information. If I have questions, should I be asking them on the import-sig or on python-dev? Is it tolerable if I ask questions even if the answer is somewhere in the archives? (I spent a lot of time reviewing the "pitchfork thread", http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064400.html, but that wasn't particularly fruitful, so I'm worried I'd just waste my time browsing the archives -- if the PEP authors did their jobs well the PEPs should include summaries of the discussion anyways.)
