Preference comes down to personal choice right now. For most of the basic operations both distribute and setuptools are equivalent.
Good to know. Is the same true for pip? Interestingly I did get a conflict when I tried to use pip to install distribute
Plone has adopted distribute starting with Plone 4 in favor of setuptools, as we believe an open-community project is much more viable and better maintained over time compared to a one-man project. But if you are more conservative, you might want to stick with setuptools.
Very much more diplomatic than how I would have put it! Charlie -- Charlie Clark Managing Director Clark Consulting & Research German Office Helmholtzstr. 20 Düsseldorf D- 40215 Tel: +49-211-600-3657 Mobile: +49-178-782-6226
