There are many ways you can do this.  If you host the files using the SF 
mirror system, then just set your project's "download URL" on PyPI to

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=80706

and easy_install will spot the download links.  It'll even handle the SF 
mirror redirection stuff.

If you want to host them somewhere else, you can just put links on your 
matplotlib.sf.net page, and that will also work.

The complete reference for how EasyInstall reads your project's info in 
PyPI (and how to configure your setup script for best results) is at:
