The recent threads on builds/installers for Mac and Windows reminded me of Steve Holden's push to get the python-dev team equipped via a connection with the Microsoft Open Source Technology Center. The OSTC team provides Microsoft Developer Network licenses to open source projects to assist them in better supporting Windows.

I've talked with Steve (who passed the task to me) and the Microsoft folks, and they are happy to provide more licenses if needed. If you are interested in getting a copy of MSDN, please contact me off-list. Does it include a license for Windows itself? Does it allow me to install and run it in a VM? If so, I'm interested.

Yes, MSDN licenses give you access to several versions of Windows plus the Visual Studio tools for compiling Python (amongst other things).
