M-A Lemburg:
> I wouldn't mind if you intergrate mxTextTools in your distro.

> My plans are to release all mx extensions using distutils
> and a new packaging strategy sometime in January next year.

> I will distutil the mx packages in three or more distributions
> (base, crypto, commercial) to enable dependencies between
> the packages. mxTextTools will be in the base version which
> will be open source as before only with a more Python 2.0
> like license.
