Mark, Thank you for the reply, I appreciate it! I guess I need to look into the GPL compatibility 'side of things'. According to the FSF, the current Python license is compatible and I believe the MIT-style license is as well. Thank you for the *excellent* win32 packages!! You have done some great work!!
