 If you're using ``setup.py upload`` to PyPI you're transmitting your
 passwords in cleartext and without any sort of authentication of the
 server you're submitting them too. To combat this I created
 https://pypi.python.org/pypi/twine which does verify TLS. It also allows
 you to upload already created packages. This makes it easy to test a
 release prior to upload.

 Not sure if it's relevant or how you upload but if you're using the
 setup.py upload method you probably want to stop.
