I'm wondering if anyone is distributing shrinkwrapped applications
built on Django that users can download and run locally?  There are a
few goals that I'm considering as I'm trying to evaluate a web
development platform (I definitely see a lot of good stuff here):

* Users want the data locally, so having the application downloaded
and installable on their end is a requirement.  This could be either
installed as a standalone application (single user), or onto a central
server (multi-user).
* The ability to setup a web server and database via installer/MSI
which can host Django without user intervention.  If they have to
tweak Apache or other stuff, I'm SOL.
* The ability to obfuscate the code to some degree, so that the source
is not laying around openly.  I understand that Python can be compiled
to bytecode.  In looking at Ruby, this appears to be a non-option.  I
realize that if someone is truly motivated, they can reverse engineer
the byte code, however; at least the source is generated and not what
was written by myself.

Anyone have any feedback?  Am I crazy to try this and should just
stick with a hosted option?

Thanks!
