And that's wrong. Py2app should work just fine with Apple's python, and then creates a semi-standalone app bundle that doesn't include Python itself. The advantage is a smaller application bundle, the disadvantage is that you must run it on the same OSX release as you built it on (or a newer one, AFAIK the result of building on 10.5 can run on 10.6)
