if the setup.py file is properly built, "python setup.py bdist_wininst" builds an installer that does exactly that. ideally, someone doing this would: 1) build EXE installers and EGG:s for a reasonable number of Python versions (e.g. 2.3 and newer) for selected releases. if possible, using the same compilers as used for the python.org core distribution. 2) test the installers in some way (at least some kind of "sanity checking" is necessary; i.e. installing the kit and checking that the core modules can at least be imported). 3) if necessary, work with upstream providers to fix/improve setup.py and test code. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
