Building python extensions with mingw on 2.6 is possible, at least on 32 bits arch. We can build numpy with mingw on 2.6; given numpy's reliance on a lot of distutils features/C code, I think most python softwares should build fine. cheers, David _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
