Good news for Windows users: The Windows build should now work out of the box without any patching or hacking, so long as you are building against MySQL-5.0; if you are building against another version, minor hacking is required for now. As usual, I do not (and can not) make Windows binaries. If you have one to contribute, let me know. Most likely users will want MySQL-5.0 and Python-2.4 or 2.5, which means two different builds. Please build against stock packages (i.e. the python.org and mysql.com ones).
If it makes you feel any better, I don't build packages for Linux anymore either. But then, the Linux vendors seem to have that covered, so I don't have to.

Was daran jetzt "Good news" sein soll, weiß ich auch nicht wirklich

Man muß also dann verschiedene MySQLdb Versionen für verschiedene Python Versionen und verschiedene MySQL Versionen bauen, ja?
