Durus egg binaries available for Windows

Hi all,

I'm working on distributing an application that will use Durus, and it
must run on Windows as well as UNIX-based OSes.  One of the early
problems I ran into was my lack of a Windows C compiler; so, I had a
local friend who *was* so blessed, Brandon King, build me a few eggs.

This required only the addition of

        from setuptools import setup

in the top of 'setup.py', and then 'python setup.py bdist_egg' for both
python 2.3 and python 2.4.

I've placed the eggs here:

        http://issola.caltech.edu/~t/dist/

You can just use

        easy_install -f http://issola.caltech.edu/~t/dist/ Durus

to install them on Windows.

If the mems-exchange folk would be interested in incorporating this
change to setup.py and/or producing and/or hosting eggs, it'd be great!

cheers,
--titus
