HI all,

My previous email was done through hg's email command
from the notify extension I believe.

Please excuse my ignorance and lack of any kind of
convention or process -- still learning the ins and outs
of contributing :)

The patch setuptools.patch enables setuptools support
on the mercurial setup.py and adds in commands like:
 * bdist_egg
 * develop
and many others related to setuptools and python eggs.

By including setuptools in the mercurial setup.py we can
build distributable python eggs which are becoming an
increasingly popular way of packaging up python software
and libraries.

Please see http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools
for more detailed information regarding setuptools, it's
use and development.

cheers
James
