It would also be good if the PEP took a position on providing

I would really like to see this. We do it on other platforms, it is
useful
there, it would be useful on Windows for the same reasons.
+1. And I'm OK with python3w and python32w as a colour for the
bikeshed...
Except for the the spelling of color ;-)
I agree. Let 'w' always be the last suffix.
Yep. (Me too, me too.)
With that settled, there is the issue of Start menu shortcuts. I
thought we had agreed to put version specific labels on them so we
would not have, for instance, identical 'IDLE (Python GUI)' items in
the frequently used list. I guess that got lost without a PEP to put
it on. Now there is?
Whilst there is much we would (and possibly should) do, other issues for
the Windows installer are out of scope for this PEP. Let's just deal
with the issue at hand. :-)
All the best,
Michael
