I'm not a python expert but I asked on IRC earlier today:

[11:16] <tibbs|h> abadger1999: What's your opinion on pulling apart an egg
versus just using the upstream tarball when upstream provides one?

[11:17] <f13> if the .egg has all source code, and no compiled python modules,
it's technically OK.

[11:17] <abadger1999> tibbs|h: I'd much rather use a tarball when available.

[11:17] <f13> however I think we'd prefer to use the tarball, unless that's not
the upstream's preferred method of source distribution.

[11:17] <abadger1999> I don't know if it's a blocker but I can't think of any
reason to prefer the egg.

FYI, agbadger1999 is Toshio, who wrote the Python Eggs guidelines, and f13 is
Jesse Keating.

Frankly I don't know enough to have a personal opinion, but if it's no trouble
it does seem that using the tarball is preferred.
