A couple of useful tools

logging_tree - introspect and display the logger tree inside the standard library's "logging" package. This could be an invaluable tool to discover what's really going on in your application's logging - and in particular perhaps why logging isn't working how you think it should.
hgtools - adds support for Mercurial in setuptools, both for the basics like listing the files under revision control (so find_packages and  include_package_data can do their work without needing explicit listings of files in MANIFEST.in) but also supporting pulling the version number from the repository tag so it doesn't have to be duplicated. The git equivalent appears to be setuptools-git (formerly known as gitlsfiles.)
