>From my unix viewpoint, I assumed that "stock 1.5.2" *was* the
source dist <grin>. Seriously, though, I believe Python 1.5.2 builds
on Windows, so you shouldn't have a problem. And yes, building the
Zope C extensions requires at least a "devopers" installation of
Python, which usually means the source dist. (I *think* that the
stuff that is needed is actually a fairly limited number of files,
at least if you are using loadable modules, so it might in fact
be true that the stock Python Windows install includes the necessary
files.)
