The PEP 370 (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0370) "per user site packages directory" has several open questions: * Are the directories for Windows, Mac and Unix fine?
The Mac directories look fine to me.Is it worthwhile to note in the PEP that the directories for the Mac are already used in Python 2.5?
* Mac: Should framework and non-framework builds of Python use the same directories?
Yes, because that makes supporting users easier and keeps things nice and simple (no need to ask which kind of Python they installed to determine where their user directory is). Distutils should already link extensions in a way that allows you to have a python2.6 unix- build and framework-build that share the same site-packages directory.
