title: How to contribute improvements to packages hosted on Cheeseshop ( pypi )?
body: <p>I've been using zc.buildout more and more and I'm encountering problems with some recipes that  I have solutions to.</p>
  
  <p>These packages generally fall into several categories:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Package with no obvious links to a project site</li>
  <li>Package with links to free hosted service like github or google code</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Setup #2 is better then #1, but not much better because for both of these situations, I would have to wait for the developer to apply these changes before i can use the updated package buildout.</p>
  
  <p>What I've been doing up to this point is basically forking the package, giving it a different name and uploading it to pypi, but this is creating redundancy and I think only aggravating the problem. </p>
  
  <p>One possible solution, is to use to use a personal server package index where I would upload updated versions of the code until the developer updates he/her package. This is doable, but it adds additional work, that I would prefer to avoid.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a better way to do this?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
