ignored projects for that reason in the past; memcached was one of those
projects for a while.

I'm jumping in because I initially learned Django on Windows, and used it
for development for almost two years.
I don't think this is a Django issue. As a beginner, the things that really

Django, since it is related to it's distribution to end-users.
Something that web2py has provided for a long time is a nice Windows

There are really at least two distinct audiences for an installer:
experienced python users who will likely have a database and python
