Are you suggesting creating vs10to9, which would be congruent to vs9to8, or
vs9to10?
After reconsidering, I don't think I want anything like this in the tree
at this point. The code will be outdated by the time Python 3.3 is
released, as Python 3.3 will be built with a Visual Studio different
The current scripts for building Python lack some things to be desired.
The first thing I notice when I try to build Python on Windows is the
scripts expect to be run inside of a Visual Studio environment, the
environment of which is only defined inside of a cmd.exe context. This means

hesitant to add support and/or documentation for building with it until we
actually support it the same as or in place of 2008.
If there are no objections, I’ll work to extract the aforementioned
functionality from the jaraco.develop modules and into a portable script
and put together a proof-of-concept in the default branch. The build
script should not interfere with any build bots or other existing build
processes,

I'd be hesitant to put too many specialized tools into the tree that will
become unmaintained. Please take a look at the vs9to8 tool in PCbuild; if
you
could adjust that to support VS 10, it would be

My goal in adding the upgrade code was to provide a one-step upgrade for
developers with only VS 10 installed. That's what vs-upgrade in
jaraco.develop does.
Upgrading to 2010 requires some code changes in addition to the
conversion, so the

I'm unsure if the conversion from 9 to 10 or 10 to 9 can be as simple as
the
vs9to8 suggests. When I run the
