Howard,

Cool, I had a vague recollection of this.  I have tried it out on my
laptop and sure enough - it seems to work!  I am quite impressed with the
inclusion of OCI (are you really permitted to redistribute oci.dll?) and
PostGIS support. I have never got the PostGIS client libraries to work
properly on Win32 though obviously lots of other people have had no problem.

So, umm, now how do I uninstall this package so I can be sure I am getting
my current development stuff when in "import gdal" in Python?

Best regards,
