Hello,

Could you place a standard egg/source distribution for docutils 0.13.1 on PyPI for buildout / easy-install scripts

Thanks a lot

PyPI may required a new small release bump for this

[Maurits van Rees]

A new version number is not needed: there is nothing wrong with adding extra files to an existing version.

But indeed buildout cannot yet install wheels (and that is a lot of work to fix) and this means that docutils 0.12 is currently the latest release that is installable by buildout. See for example a bug report here: https://github.com/zestsoftware/zest.releaser/issues/196

So it would be helpful to keep releasing a source zip or tarball, next to the wheel. As I understand it, this is still recommended practice. See https://packaging.python.org/distributing/#packaging-your-project which says you should at least upload a source distribution.
Thanks.
