I'm looking at building/testing reportlab with appveyor, but need some 
assistance building the C extensions in particular freetype.

I looked at the code for pillow in

https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/tree/master/winbuild

along with

https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/blob/master/appveyor.yml


but I'm not sure I really understand it terribly well.

In particular does appveyor support 3.5 & 3.6? The config.py compilers list 
seems to refer to versions 7.0 and 7.1, but that doesn't seem to be the 
visualc++ version at all.

Looking at the appveyor.yml do people really reveal their ftp or s3 tokens? Or 
is it more reasonable to upload to a github acccount.
