Strictly speaking you should use MSVC.NET to build extensions for Python v2.5. MSVC 2008 should be used for Python v2.6 and later. This only applies if you are using the Windows installers from python.org. If you are compiling Python yourself you can use (in theory) any compiler. The reason is that the runtimes are not binary compatible particularly (if I remember correctly) in relation to file handling. Having said that I switched to using MSVC 2008 for the PyQt Windows installers for Python v2.4 and v2.5 about a year ago and nobody has complained.
