A version declaration is a series of conditional operators and
version numbers, separated by commas. Conditional operators
must be one of "<", ">", "<=", ">=", "==", and "!=". Because they
refer to non-Python software releases, version numbers for
this field are **not** required to conform to the format
must be one of "<", ">", "<=", ">=", "==", and "!=". If no
operator is provided with a version, the "==" operator is used by default.
Because they refer to non-Python software releases, version numbers
for this field are **not** required to conform to the format
specified in `PEP 386`_: they should correspond to the
version scheme used by the external dependency.
Any number of conditional operators can be specified, e.g.
the string ">1.0, !=1.3.4, <2.0" is a legal version declaration.
The canonical list of what strings are allowed is available
in the `Python Package Index`_ database: see
`External References Registry`_ below for a description of how
the allowed values are managed.
Some dependencies are anticipated to be quite broad, eg. "C",
indicating a C compiler is required.
Notice that there's is no particular rule on the strings to be used.

External References Registry
============================
Stores in the `Python Package Index`_ database a list of (name, description,
URI) identifying an external reference that may be used as a value in
a Requires-External field.
The name and description are required, but URI is not (as there is no
single useful URI for "C").
Submissions to the registry are open to the community, and may be performed
through the web or using the command-line.
The names in the registry will be created under a first-comes first-wins
basis. Other packagers of Python software (eg. to deb, rpm, etc) should be
able to translate the `Requires-external` field to names in their own
packaging system.
XXX command-line interface needs work, obviously
