What about we turn that around. How would you describe a 'automated enough' build environment? I suspect you consider: python setup.py bdist_wininst to be pretty close to that. How does it differ from: make installer once all dependencies are in place? I agree that the procedure for building the current Windows installer, though documented (yes, it is documented), has more steps than required. One place where it could be streamlined is that it expects you to download the Python 2.3 Windows Installer and tarball manually and put them into a specific directory. That could certainly be done by the makefile. -- Sidnei da Silva Enfold Systems, LLC. http://enfoldsystems.com _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
