Under OS X and Linux, Python is typically installed by default. And under Windows, it's a simple installer that even non-Windows users like me have no problem executing.

That's not exclusively American. > Estimate of 1 person full time for 1.5 years to get mercurial running on > Python 3, at half the speed of Python 2.

Thank you, Glyph!
