Sure -- if someone comes to me wanting to use python for
scientific/computational computing, I point them to one of the
distributions -- maybe I'll add WinPython to that list now.

But if someone is already using python for, say web development, then they
already have an installation up and running, and I want to give them an
easy option to add numpy (and secondarily scipy) to what they have easily.

And it looks like we are almost there, thanks to a lot of work by a few key
folks -- thanks!
