Hi,

I'm planning to move my Python+Qt project from PyQt4 to PySide before making it 
public and adding license texts.  ( demo: 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcH9Drp0FpE ) Soon after that I should have at 
least Mac standalone app and Windows executable available for interested 
people, but at this point I am a bit worried if I can get the existing 
deployment tools like py2app, py2exe to work with PySide. I noticed that 
cx_freeze is one new option too. My project uses only QtCore and QtGui and is 
mostly done in Mac OS X Snow Leopard. My access to Windows machines is quite 
rare, so I need a reliable method for building .exe:s.  

My question is, are there any people who are currently actively and 
successfully deploying mac apps and windows .exes out from their PySide 
projects? What tools are working and is the overall process "like it should be" 
or something that will change with the progress of PySide (in near months)? 

My current state is that I am still working with PyQt4 and my tries to get 
PySide working have failed, probably because of 32bit/64bit mismatch somewhere. 
If I spent some time with it, I could probably get it to work, but I don't know 
if I should do the effort yet if the chances for successful deployment in next 
few months are small. In other words, should I start fighting with my tools and 
installation now, or should I stay coding my project and wait for more 
experienced PySide people to get things idiot-proofed?

Thanks for great work,
