[Zope-Coders] Win Source code building

[Matthew T. Kromer]

Right.

In a nutshell, on Windows to build a source Zope, you run the VCVARS32 
batch file, then run utilities\extensionbuilder.py -z

That won't let you make the WISE installer module, since we do binary 
releases differently than source releases; effectively, after building 
the .PYD files, I slurp them all up and copy them to a special binaries 
directory, and then check them in to a binaries CVS tree.  The binary 
build process unpacks each platform set of binaries over the checked out 
source, along with whatever additional tools need to be unpacked to 
actually package the release (like the WISE configuration file).
