Hi,
just noticed this in Ken Sanderson's abstract for the FOSS4G conference,
maybe it is interesting for someone who one day packages the new wx GUI
for windows,
py2exe: "py2exe is a Python Distutils extension which converts Python
scripts into executable Windows programs, able to run without requiring a
Python installation."

hi
yes, there are programs like this. however, afaik, it simply makes one
big package with all necessary libs and tools. I would not say, we
should go this way.
just my 2 cents

Interesting, but I'm not terribly thrilled with another translation
layer, possibly making it difficult to determine where GUI bugs actually
came from.
FYI, Microsoft has the ability to read and compile[1] Python natively
in .NET 2.x, but suffers from the same issue as above:

I just hope they don't try to do to Python what they did to Java.
