<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";
color:#003399'>First of all, many thanks and congratulations to the GDAL team
for getting the 1.6.0 release out the door. A special thanks to those of you
who fixed the OGR bugs I opened recently.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";
color:#003399'>I am eager to try out the final release Python bindings for
win32 for Python 2.4, 2.5, and 2.6. Do you know when these might be released?
Currently, they are available through pypi.python.org and easy_install for GDAL
1.5.2. Will you be updating pypi with 1.6.0 anytime soon? Or is there a better
way to obtain them?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";
color:#003399'>I would like to avoid building them myself, if possible. I know
I can get them from one of the GDAL build servers, but it appeared that the
server only built them for Python 2.5. I need them for both Python 2.4 and 2.5,
and, soon, Python 2.6.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
