I'll make a custom Bill-Janssen-Step-By-Step-List:
try:
1. Write a setup.py file. See distutils documentation for details.
2. Install Python 2.5.2
3. Run
c:\python25\python.exe setup.py build --compiler=mingw32
4. Run
c:\python25\python.exe setup.py build --compiler=mingw32
bdist_wininst
except Exception, e:
A. Post e to python-dev
else:
5. Upload dist/* to PyPI
(you can use setup.py upload for that also)
HTH,
Martin
