Sounds good. Does it support building for both Python 2.x and Python 3.x (in
case both are supported)?

&gt;<i> * I'd like to add a rule (which is followed by current packages) that
</I>&gt;<i> the prefix &quot;py&quot; should

</I>
I'm OK with it either way.

&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> * Also for grouping.  I'd like to add a rule that Development/Python
</I>&gt;<i> is intended for packages
</I>&gt;<i> which provide general development libraries for python, and if the

</I>&gt;<i> should go into the
</I>&gt;<i> other category.
</I>
Sounds good.

&lt;mst&gt; I find it&#8217;s usually safe to assume that whatever shlomif&#8217;s doing, there
isn&#8217;t a good reason for it.

Please reply to list if it's a mailing list post - <A HREF="http://shlom.in/reply">http://shlom.in/reply</A> .
