I suggest you look at
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/an_example_pypi_project/0.0.5
One project, several files for both different Python versions and
differen packaging type, including an msi.
I notice that garlicsim (new version uploaded, just by coindidence) has
separate projects for each Python release (2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 3.1), but I am
not sure that is normal. I think I would personally prefer just one
unless there is a technical reason otherwise.
