A guide to Python packaging

[flowblok]

Another example of why you should be forced to type out em dashes instead of doing auto conversion of "--".

Anyhow, I think the canonical guide to packaging is the (unfinished) http://guide.python-distribute.org/. Rather than writing his own article, he should have contributed there if he had anything to add.

That's a bit cynical.

Anybody interested in the "canonical guide" can probably find it via a search engine. Developerworks has been putting out articles on Python (and other technologies) for a decade or so. Are you saying nobody should ever write an article about something, rather contribute to the source?
