Leam - if the guide is difficult to follow, feel free to ask here, or raise issues on the project tracker at https://github.com/pypa/python-packaging-user-guide/. Most of us working on packaging are way too involved in the details to know how it really feels to a newcomer to be faced with all this stuff, so if you have any comments (or even better, suggestions as to how we could improve things) that would be immensely valuable.
