Larry,

Bringing you into this discussion as CPython 3.5 release manager - we're trying 
to figure out what role we'd like the CPython Windows installers to play in the 
Windows distribution ecosystem, and I raised the question of whether or not 
typical Windows based end users might be better off with a larger, more 
comprehensive bundle like Portable Python (which they can also run from a USB 
stick if they want to).

There's no specific urgency here - I just wanted to give you a heads up that 
the discussion was happening. It's not clear to me yet if this will go anywhere 
(if nothing else, even if we decided it was a plausible idea, it would still be 
conditional on someone offering to contact Perica Zivkovic to see if they were 
amenable to the concept, as well as someone offering to write the suggestion up 
as a full PEP and work through the necessary changes to PEP 101 release 
management), but I figured you should at least be aware of the possibility as 
RM.
