Which distribution

First, I am so happy to see interest in Python on CE. I am a seasoned .NET programmer and would love to see an alternative.

However, I am confused. It seems that there are a number of different distributions in different states. Is there really an official distribution or maybe one that is preferred by most (SourceForge python ce???).

Mainly, I just think its sad if lots of people are trying to compile python when there should be a shared effort. Though I may not clearly understand the "state of the union".

I think in addition to bringing python up to date we need a few things:

- A good shell (the current one is horrible on my WM6 device)

- a direction for GUI development

- A light web server framework, this would allow us to build CE apps that run in the browser.
