[Twisted-Python] 2.0.0 pre-pre-release

[Thomas Vander Stichele]

Hi !

Thanks for doing this.

> Please download the packages relevant to you and give them a test.
> You'll need to install Twisted-2.0.0a1 before any of the other

Some remarks:

- I've tested on Fedora Core 3.  trial gives me one failure and one
error; relevant output attached.
- The split FAQ led me to believe there would be one Twisted package as
before; which would contain everything as before.  Core would be in a
TwistedCore package.  The tarballs on your site seem to have Core in the
Twisted tarball.  Is that intentional ?
- I wonder why the naming of tarballs is the way it is.  For example,
the URL will be .../twisted/web, the import package is twisted.web, why
is the tarball TwistedWeb-(version).tar.bz2 ?
- As a general request on behalf of packagers, it's nice to not have
anything but digits in version numbers.  I know this is probably a
contented point of view.

I'll report some more when I managed to package it up (or wrest RPM's
from Jeff's hands) and have been able to use them against some of our
tests.

Thanks
Thomas
