Speaking for ZMySQLDA, there have been no new releases for more than
two years because there's been no need to release anything: It works.
There's never been any development for the WIndows platform because
it's cross-platform, and there's nothing platform-specific in
ZMySQLDA.

There is one prerequisite for installing ZMySQLDA, and that is
installing MySQLdb.

Availability of pre-compiled Windows packages depends entirely upon
end-users who have the tool chain to build them. So far there is not
an installer for 1.0.1. However, 1.0 or even 0.9.2 should be fine for
Zope; most of the changes are in the Python layer which is not used by
Zope.
