Guys,<br><br>I have taken the commitment to lead these tasks and synchronize the people that are willing to help on this.<br><br>
We are working on several tasks and PEPS to make things happen since the summit.<br><br>
There's no public roadmap yet on when things will be done (because there's no 100% certitude yet on what shall be done). <br>But that it will probably be too late to see it happen in 3.1. Python 2.7 will be our target.<br>
<br>The tasks discussed so far are:<br><br>- version definition (<a href="http://wiki.python.org/moin/DistutilsVersionFight">http://wiki.python.org/moin/DistutilsVersionFight</a>) <br>- <a href="http://egg.info">egg.info</a> standardification (PEP 376) <br>
- metadata enhancement (rewrite PEP 345) <br>- static metadata definition work (*)<br>- creation of a network of OS packager people <br>- PyPI mirroring (PEP 381)<br><br>Each one of this task has a leader, except the one with (*). I just got back from travelling, and I will reorganize<br>
<a href="http://wiki.python.org/moin/Distutils">http://wiki.python.org/moin/Distutils</a> asap to it is up-to-date.<br><br>If you want to work on one of this task or feel there's a new task you can start, please, join Distutils SIG or contact me,<br>

We will need a PEP, the PEP will need a sample implementation, and<br>
a proponent. Who's gonna bell the cat?<br>
