I must say, I'm no expert, and I didn't battle to install Django on my Windows machine at all - I just followed the tutorial and various instructions they provide. (I used TortoiseSVN to do the SVN thing, as they suggest.)

The only thing I can't seem to get around is the fact that Django, or something, thinks I'm not allowing cookies, when I absolutely do. (I did an installation at work too - not SVN - also without problems. There, however, I can get into the admin interface without the cookie complaints.)

Anybody with experience on these platforms want to step up and help
out with easier install processes?

As soon as we released 0.95 I've built an installer for Windows and
e-mailed it to Jacob. I never heard back. Since then I am distributing
it privately.

Some details:

1) It doesn't install Python --- I suggest to use free ActiveState's
ActivePython installer prior to Django's installer. Or use the official
python.org installer --- it works too, but ActiveState did a better job
packaging all Windows-related features --- it is easy to install, it is
easy to upgrade.

2) The art was done by Wilson Miner, so it fits visually with the rest
of Django-branded offerings (e.g., the web sites).

Thanks,

Eugene
