Hi all Those of you who follow me on Twitter (@zooba) may have noticed that I posted one of my rare blog posts over the weekend about the increasing range of Python installers available for Windows. I figured I'd draw some attention here in case others are interested in my rationale for why the main installer is how it is, and why I'm also experimenting with other forms of installer or package: http://stevedower.id.au/blog/why-so-many-python-installers/ Arguably this would make a good section in the docs or a PEP, though it's very point-in-time content, so a blog seems fine for now. There's also not really anything in the docs about how Linux distributors package up CPython, so maybe it's best as entirely standalone content. Cheers, Steve (In case anyone is suspicious, I earn no income from my blog and there are no ads. So I hope I'm not promoting the link for selfish reasons :) )
