+Distribute Support
+==================
+
+Distribute is a drop-in replacement for Setuptools.
+
+zc.buildout is now compatible with Distribute 0.6. To use Distribute in your
+buildout, you need use the ``--distribute`` option of the ``bootstrap.py``
+script::
+
+    $ python bootstrap.py --distribute
+
+This will download and install the latest Distribute 0.6 release in the
+``eggs`` directory, and use this version for the scripts that are created
+in ``bin``.
+
+Notice that if you have a shared eggs directory, a buildout that uses 
+Distribute will not interfer with other buildouts that are based on Setuptools
+and that are sharing the same eggs directory.
+
+Form more information about the Distribute project, see:
+http://python-distribute.org
