Probably a good bet.

Well, I'd understand if you want the value to be added to Plone, but
it would be nice if some of the value trickled back down into Zope at
least a little bit. ;-)

So if you're interested I've checked the Windows buildout software
into cvs.zope.org into Packages/WinBuilders.  The buildout software
included makes it much less painful to build binaries quickly.

It relies on VC 6++, Cygwin, and Innosetup 4.  There is a buildout
that works for the current Zope 2.7 branch and a mostly-working ZEO
binary buildout.  Both rely on a specially built Python, the buildout
for which is also included.
