[Distutils] Pre-0.1.3 snapshot available

[Greg Ward]

Hi all --

I've finally caught up with the last couple weeks' traffic on the sig,
and fixed many of the bugs reported.  There's a new code snapshot
available:

    http://www.python.org/sigs/distutils-sig/distutils-20000117.tar.gz

Please give it a whirl, especially if you're using Windows.

This mostly includes Windows portability fixes.  It does *not* include
Finn Bock's fixes for JPython; I haven't had time to look closely at
those.  They might have to wait for version 0.2.

There *might* be a 0.1.3 release before IPC8, but I really should work
on my slides for the conference first... so please give this snapshot a
try.  Just download it and run the setup script as usual -- the main
difference between the snapshot and a real release is no doc updates
(hence README, USAGE, and CHANGES are not included in the snapshot).

        Greg
