[Product-Developers] pypi vs plone.org releases

Hi,

There was a previous thread where this was brought up but nothing  
resolved.
Plugins these days tend to get released on plone.org OR pypi but not  
always both.
This is confusing for inexperienced intergrators or end customers.
For instance looking at plone.org you'd think Products.PloneGlossary  
is unmaintained

http://plone.org/products/ploneglossary

but if you look at pypi you realise it is maintained.

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.PloneGlossary/1.5.0b3#b3-2011-07-15

There were some clever suggestions about how to fix this but none  
seems particularly easy.
For instance make PSC mirror all the releases for software it manages  
from pypi.

Anyone got a bright idea on how to fix this?
