It looks like the ability to include pytz and other dependencies in binary distributions has been removed? Is this really what we want? In the past we always included them. Excluding them certainly makes sense if using pip or a similar installer that can handle dependencies, but that is not the case for binaries. I guess we could serve the associated packages (pytz, dateutil and six), or if they can be installed by pip, ask users to install those. But users using binary installers may not even have pip available, so it's a big initial hurdle. I'd personally be happier reverting to the old system.
