I personally use py2exe, and Boa has some support for it.

If you create a setup.py file for your project 
(from Palette->New->Setup) you can build an exe by selecting
File->py2exe from the Setup.py module in the Editor.

Note that it is your responsibility to make sure that everything that 
py2exe requires is in the setup.py file.
(like importing py2exe, etc. see the py2exe docs)

It's on my todo list to support Installer too, but there are 
many many other things with higher priority.
