I see now, the code was removed in 29a3eda89995. But the associated comment indicates distutils is feature-frozen and that subsequent work should be done in distutils2, which of course is now a defunct effort. Given that information, what's the proper solution for a project that requires the ability to read distribution metadata (preferably one that supports Python 3.2)?
