I did "python bootstrap.py && ./bin/buildout" and got this:

... Getting distribution for 'PasteScript'.

Chris said to try bootstrap.py with the --distribute option. That worked fine.

This bug is for:

1. figuring out what happened
2. fixing the hacking howto so it's clearer about working around issues and using --distribute

The codebase is maturing quickly towards something where we could implement video support pretty soon.

There are several parts to this project:

• Implementing multi-media class support (this probably needs its own ticket)
• Add video processing code. We need someone with gstreamer experience... if someone can construct a generic gstreamer video encoding pipeline that would help things along by a lot.
• Allow for dropping in multiple-media-type image support (again, part of the first bullet) and add one for video

If someone can help me with bullet #2 this can move along a lot faster..

If we scaled down an image (ie, if there's a 'medium' key...) then the image should link to the original fullsized image.
