Martin,

I'm answering you and cc'ing the PythonCE list so this goes in the archive.


1. Please do not send requests to support@murkworks.com.. Although MurkWorks is 
hosting a python-ce website, it is not in any way involved with the port.. that's a pet 
project of mine

2. I have posted my "build tree", you can download it via FTP from

ftp://ftp.murkworks.com/pub/beta/pyceall3.zip

It's 39 megabytes!

3. Is the 710 a Pocket PC? It works fine on my iPaQ.. uh, that's PC 2002 I guess. 
Which came first, 3.0 or 2002?

4. We're moving towards branching the main python CVS or creating a new SF project 
to put our stuff in. Stay tuned to the list.. I'm working on python-dev to determine the 
best solution to the errno issue, which is what has been holding up integrating CE 
patches back into core.
