Weck,

if you like to help and spend some time on getting VS2008 support into
Python 2.6 and 3.0 I'm willing to assist you. You can download the Beta
2 of the VS C++ 2008 Express Edition from
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/express/future/bb421473.aspx

IMHO the order of things to do is:

* Get Python 2.6 and all dependencies to compile with VS2008 (PCbuild9
directory?)
* Fork msvccompiler and fix it for VS2008
* Fix Tools/msi
