+Distutils
+
+- the sdist command now writes a PKG-INFO file, as described in PEP 241,
+ into the release tree.
+
+- several enhancements to the bdist_wininst command from Thomas Heller
+ (an uninstaller, more customization of the installer's display)
+
+- from Jack Jansen: added Mac-specific code to generate a dialog for
+ users to specify the command-line (because providing a command-line with
+ MacPython is awkward). Jack also made various fixes for the Mac
+ and the Metrowerks compiler.
+
+- added 'platforms' and 'keywords' to the set of metadata that can be
+ specified for a distribution. Supplying a version number has been made
+ compulsory.
+
+- applied patches from Jason Tishler to make the compiler class work with
+ Cygwin.
