I'm motivated.

That won't work, will it? VC Express doesn't come with an AMD64 compiler (I think it's possible to use the SDK one, but this again is more complicated). Regards, Martin

Correct. There are a few hacky ways to get Express to use the x64 SDK, or so I read.

I have a Server 2008 R2 x64 box with the full Visual Studio that I could add to the buildbot fleet. It's a dual core with 4 GB of RAM, plenty of disk space, and it runs 24/7.

I'll see about getting that setup as a build slave. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/attachments/20101013/92539ba6/attachment-0001.html>
