The name of the packaging system we're talking >about is called either "eggs" or "setuptools" depending on the context. Just as an FYI, the (planned) name of the packaging program for setuptools is "nest". It doesn't exist yet, however, except for a whole lot of design notes in my outlining program. You'll be able to use commands like "nest list" to show installed projects, "nest source" to fetch a project's source, "nest rm" or "nest uninstall" to uninstall, etc. It's all 100% vaporware at the moment, but that's the plan. I actually looked at other system package managers written in Python (i.e. yum and smart) to use as a possible base for implementing "nest", but unfortunately these are all GPL'd and thus not compatible with the setuptools or Python licenses, so I didn't actually get very far in my evaluation.
