Sad as it sounds, it appears you just did half of the work, then (omitting the Windows build process). > hashlib passes its test suite with our without openssl.

None, if you do it correctly (where correctly includes AMD64 and IA64 builds), add text to PCbuild/readme.txt, and edit msi.py properly. That is, assuming hashlib then still works correctly on Windows (which is hard to tell). > IMHO the > windows python 2.5 build as it is is missing a feature by not > including this. Wrong incantation :-) We are in feature freeze now, so adding a feature is a big no-no. You should have argued this is a bug <0.5 wink>.
