I resolved this issue but my mail with the solution was not posted to the list I expect. (Still wondering why.) Is it correct that you replied to me privately and not using the list?

That was an accident -- this list is set to default reply to the sender only, and I neglected to hit "reply all".

Here is the solution:
The command line tool "strip" was missing on my machine. After installing strip (Apple Development Tools), py2app stripped the size to 47 MB which is half the original size! Zipped it is about 16 MB.

Ah -- that does seem to do the trick! Impressive reduction!

According to several reports (including your report) this size seems perfectly OK now.

yup, it's big, but expected for a large Universal lib.

PS: Although it might be unusual not to have these tools installed, a hint somewhere in the documentation -- if there is not one already -- could be helpful for newbies like me.

Yes, it would. Just in case, I've posted this to the list, so it will be in the archives.
