Thanks John. May I ask why you produce and upload to ftp.gnome.org only .exe
installers rather than .msi that are considered the best ones even by
distutils docs [1]:

   In most cases, the bdist_msi installer is a better choice than the
   bdist_wininst installer, because it provides better support for Win64
   platforms, allows administrators to perform non-interactive installations,
   and allows installation through group policies.

That would also go towards the possibility to create a batch
installation. By the way Dieter Verfaillie has already produced them and
posted the URL for these to this list [2]
