Sorry I usually don't use the VS GUI to build mod_python, only the

Not your fault, probably mine for assuming the VS project was the way
to go. I'm not familiar with the dist stuff, but probably it would
work. I like to manage the compiler settings myself usually so I can
turn on optimizations. Microsoft makes a pretty good optimizing
compiler.

In fact, I'm all in favor of dropping the VCPROJ file, because maintaining
it could promptly become a mess, what with three differents version of VS to
use (VS6 for Python 2.3, VS 2003 for Python 2.4 and who knows, VS 2005 one
day ?).

Anyone has an opinion on this ?

Well I would miss it. But you can do something that would be better.
Just make a text document with some cheat notes to help people get
started building mod_python with their favourite compiler. I've
included a sample of such a file, using it as a guide, I successfully
created a new project from scratch and buuilt mod_python. You can use
it as a base.
