Is there some reason that recent Windows 3.6 releases don't included executable nor msi installers?

Thank you Dieter - yes I'm aware of that. You need to understand that I 
am lazy. I haven't done it before and I was persuaded by a grizzly old 
sysadmin that it is much easier to stick with the distro version.

I have actually compiled mod-wsgi before in the days of Python 2.7 so I 
do know how brilliantly Linux is set up for software development 
compared with Windows.

I will think about it seriously.

Cheers
