Is the Express Edition of Visual C++ 2008 suitable for compiling packages for Python 2.6 on Windows? (And Python 2.6 itself for that matter...)

Yes - it's currently being used on my buildbot, for example, to build Python itself. Works for 2.6 and later.

Ditto for 2.5, 3.1 and the trunk (which I guess becomes 3.2?)

2.5 needs VS 2003. -- David
