Arthur,

you complained about some inabilitier of the Win32 Distutils-Installer. 
  Maybe the approach taken by PyGame is the solution: The PyGame-library 
uses distutils (different downloads for different Python versions), and 
the PyGame-Docs use some full blown installer, which generates 
Start-menu shortcuts, and allows for installing in an arbitrary location 
(defaulting to 'program files').

Markus

P.S.: Your PyOpenGL-Minimal installer seems to be too minimal ;)  I 
tried to start the wxPython demo which uses wxGLCanvas, but it 
complained about not finding glut32.dll
