[BangPypers] Python app in a browser sandbox?

[Navtej Singh]

I guess you should be able to use pyinstaller
http://pyinstaller.python-hosting.com/.
"Support for building COM servers (Windows only). "
IMO the size of the distribution exe/dll would be significantly larger
as the resultant exe/dll is a kind of  achieve.
May be you should take a second look at IronPython+Silverlight and
check if that suits your requirement.
