Hopefully the backward compatibility interface in rpy 2.0 will eventually make upgrading from rpy1 to rpy2 simple. In the meantime, I would assume the developers would accept Windows installers compiled by volunteers. These need updating for each new release of R, so the installers do get out of date. Its been a while but I have build rpy on Windows with Python 2.3 and MSCV 6.0 (the compiler used for the official Python 2.3 installation). Cygwin's mingw32 compiler should also work (which is freely available software) for any version of python.
