Ok, sounds right, I have changed to doc accordingly

Ok, I dropped that part

So what remains in the document is:

- change the PyPI code so it warns on unexisting classifier
- change the .pypirc file so it has several sections (Fred's model)
- change the distutils register and upload commands so it works with the new
.pypirc file,
  and let the user choose the server in the command line
