documentation, was RE: [Distutils] setup.py clean questions

[James Thompson]

I'd have to second this.  I have a really tough time figuring out what
setyp.py can and can't do due to the lack of docs.  Digging into the
source or other projects setup.py files to rediscover what others already
know is very time consuming.  

Thanks for all the hard effort,
James
