In the publishing your app section of the Reusable Apps
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/reusable-apps/#publishing-
your-app) tutorial, the documentation links to PyPi Quickstart on the
python-distrubute.org domain.
Text reads: For more information on PyPI, see the [http://guide.python-
distribute.org/quickstart.html#register-your-package-with-the-python-
package-index-pypi Quickstart] section
and the "Quickstart" link points to http://guide.python-
distribute.org/quickstart.html#register-your-package-with-the-python-
package-index-pypi
I can't find a suitable replacement for the PyPi quickstart to suggest a
patch.

Comment:
Hi,
Indeed, it seems that `python-distribute.org` has been taken down.
I think the information can be found on the "The Hitchhiker’s Guide to
Packaging"'s page at http://the-hitchhikers-guide-to-
packaging.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ but I'm not sure how up-to-date that
page is (the copyright says 2009 which is ancient when it comes to Python
packaging).
Thanks.

Up-to-date packaging documentation can be found at
https://packaging.python.org/.
> I can't find a suitable replacement for the PyPi quickstart to suggest a

I think the correct link is
https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/distributing.html#uploading-your-
project-to-pypi
