[Matplotlib-users] All-in-one distribution of python/numpy/scipy/mpl for windows

[Mark B. <ma...@gm...>]

Thanks for the pointer to the new egg installer of Enthought.
Nice app, which I will use.

But this is, IMHO, not what we need to move the python/numpy/scipy/mpl combo
into the more mainstream use.
Many potential users won't know what to do with the long list of packages
that they have never heard of.
I think it would be very useful to have one installer that gets a reasonable
distrubtion installed (like the old Enthought installer).
Isn't something like that in the works for the Mac?
We can even make a python/numpy/scipy/mpl and then a seperate one that also
includes ipython and wxpython, for example.

Or maybe a webpage where you can just select what eggs to install.
Would that be doable?
Anybody else think this is what we need?

Mark
