-This directory contains only a subset of the Distutils, specifically
-the Python modules in the 'distutils' and 'distutils.command'
-packages. This is all you need to distribute and install Python
-modules using the Distutils. There is also a separately packaged
-standalone version of the Distutils available for people who want to
-upgrade the Distutils without upgrading Python, available from the
-Distutils web page:
+This directory contains the Distutils package.
- http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/
+There's a full documentation available at:
-The standalone version includes all of the code in this directory,
-plus documentation, test scripts, examples, etc.
+ http://docs.python.org/distutils/
-The Distutils documentation is divided into two documents, "Installing
-Python Modules", which explains how to install Python packages, and
-"Distributing Python Modules", which explains how to write setup.py
-files. Both documents are part of the standard Python documentation
-set, and are available from http://www.python.org/doc/current/ .
+The Distutils-SIG web page is also a good starting point:
