python2.4 uses a newer C library. So for some older windows
installations people need that C library mscrt. You are not allowed
to distribute that library except under certain situations.
I'm not real clear on the details.

Hi, all:
I remember that some people expressed their discontent with certain
license issues around the Python 2.4 for Windows distribution. If I
recall correctly the problem was about dependencies on MS libraries
which are not freely redistributable.
I may be wrong but I don't think that same issues are resolved in the
2.5 version, is that so?
Maybe someone can shed some light over this matter?
Thank you.
