Re: [Python-Dev] Python for windows.

The only conflict I see here is the requirement to install into "\Program Files" and I'm surprised that hasn't been raised in this thread.

The question is whether the "OEM ready" is a property of the installer, or a property of the installed. The OEM can chose to install Python into program files, and while there is occasional breakage, we do want to support this case - just not make it the default.

However, should such a situation arise, my position would probably be that unless it was MS suggesting it be preloaded on *all* PCs, we should sacrifice that part of being "OEM Ready" to best look after the interests of people who seek it out for download.

So much agreement :-) Regards, Martin
