Hello,

http://pyinstaller.hpcf.upr.edu/

PyInstaller is a program that packages Python programs into stand-alone
executables, under both Windows and Linux. This is similar to the famous
py2exe, but PyInstaller is also able to build fully-contained (single file)
executables, while py2exe can only build directories containing an executable
with multiple dynamic libraries.
PyInstaller is an effort to rescue, maintain and further develop Gordon
McMillan's Python Installer (now PyInstaller). Their official website is not
longer available and the original package is not longer maintained. Believing
that it is still far superior to py2exe we have setup this page to continue its
further development.

We have just begun development on PyInstaller. Feel free to join us in the
effort! Please consult our Roadmap
(http://pyinstaller.hpcf.upr.edu/pyinstaller/roadmap) to check our plans.
