If you've created the setup.py with all its magic already, wouldn't it
be worth putting that up onto PyPI [http://pypi.python.org]? This way
anybody could just install it using pip without the need to download,
etc. You can also have custom build/compile steps in the setup.py, so
that the C/C++ parts can be compiled on the target machine upon install
via pip. The PyMongo project for example has this solved really nicely,
where the pip install works smoothly, and even defaults back to a pure
Python driver in case build tools (GCC, etc.) are not available.
Obviously that fallback won't be an option here, but the pip install
magic via PyPI would step VisualPython up another notch.
