Thanks. Perhaps the lit PyPi package version should also follow the LLVM
version number to make things less confusing (the current 0.2.0 isn't
very helpful). Even better would be to make updating the lit PyPi
package part of the LLVM release process (i.e. when a release is made
update the PyPi package).

Thanks,
Dan.

Done, lit-0.3.0 is now on PyPI.

I think of lit as a separate tool from LLVM that happens to be inside the
llvm svn repo. For now, I prefer to keep it on its own version numbers, I
make releases of it out of band with LLVM, and it rarely changes.
