Hello all, I've finished a first draft of guidelines for using python eggs. There's one open question -- whether we should be creating eggs for upstreams that do not create them by default. I think the answer to that is no except for one special case but others might disagree.
The rest of it is pretty straightforward; made longer by the addition of copious examples. Take a look and give feedback. The Packaging Committee will vote on this on Tuesday (next week's packaging meeting.)

PS: We already have a couple of cases where we need to apply these guidelines * Review for parallel installable python-sqlalchemy0.3: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=257381
* Request for python-cherrypy-3.0 upgrade which needs a python-cherrypy2 compat package for TurboGears. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=224683
* Request to add egginfo to docutils (which is a departure from upstream). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=256541
