I have committed python/nondist/sandbox/msi to the CVS. This is a MSI generator for Python on Windows, which I'd like to propose as a replacement for Wise.
It looks good! There are a couple of UI quirks, as most MSIs have, when the system font settings are tweaked.
One suggestion: You should author the InitialTargetDir custom action into the InstallExecuteSequence table so a silent install supplies a default directory. You can already run a silent install by passing in a TARGETDIR property setting to the MSIEXEC command line, but if you forget, everything lands in the root of your boot drive.
