  • distutils is gone, we don't need to mention it or the mailing list it inspired (and is now closed)
  • The wheel format is no longer the bright new hope, it's widely adopted
  • Remove some detail about Python 3.3/3.4 that is no longer relevant
  • Use program directive for commands
  • Use shell highlighting by default
  • Sentence case header
  • A bit of copyediting
  • Update examples
