I'd be willing to give that a go. The PEPs URL is giving me a "Bad
Gateway" error at the moment, but I think the only coding needed in
there is writing the "pyzaa/pyzapp" module. (If Steve would be willing
to add the file associations - I'm not sure I want to dive into the
new installer technology along with all the *other* things I'm
volunteering for right now :-))
