I've lost track of it. In broad terms it's not too hard to get going once you've installed VS[*]; I've rebuild several different fresh Python checkouts several times today while these issues have been discussed, and generally it's a question of: cd py3k (or whatever) tools\buildbot\externals.bat cd py3k\pcbuild env build -d rt -d and you're done and tested. That said, I seem to be having build issues with ssl on 2.7 which I'll try to look into. But the technique is fairly straightforward. TJG [*] And a small clutter of other tools for certain bits
