I'd object that. I've always used register without creating a source 
dist; the data used for registering just comes from the setup.py file 
AFAIK.

I've tried downloading the .tar.gz and using its setup.py, I got this 
error:


running register
running check
Registering Matalg to http://pypi.python.org/pypi
Server response (400): Invalid classifier "Development Status :: 
Release 0.1.0"

Take a look at those, you should use those values as classifier, I was 
able to register Matalg without issues (I'll now delete it)
