Also, I have read the draft and I cannot see references to 64-bit binary packages. With the advent of Windows 7 and Mac OSX Snow Leopard, 64-bit are way more spread than before, so they would be a great thing to deliver, IMO.
True, however the situation is a bit ugly with OS-X -- python.org does not distribute 64 bit binaries at all, and Apple's Python is a bit weird in that regard. Also some key libraries (anything build on Carbon , such as wxPython) don't work on 64 bit. That being said, a 32+64 bit build for the Apple supplied Python for OS-X 10.6 might be nice, though a bit of a niche market. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
