[python-win32] building a complicated Python application on Windows

[Trent Nelson]

Conda is well suited to this.  I use it to bundle all sorts of stuff on Windows.  (You write recipes (see https://github.com/conda/conda-recipes for examples), then 'conda build' them, which produces a package that can be subsequently installed with conda install.  Can sign up to anaconda.org and then upload the package into your own channel, such that a plain 'conda install -c janssen foobar' will install your package and all the deps (which were specified in the recipe/meta.yaml).
