As always, we provide binaries that include both pyOpenSSL and
the necessary OpenSSL libraries for all supported platforms: Windows

We have also added .egg-file distribution versions of our eGenix.com pyOpenSSL Distribution for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X to the available download options. These make setups using e.g. zc.buildout and other egg-file based installers a lot easier.
Please visit the eGenix pyOpenSSL Distribution page for downloads, instructions on installation and documentation of the package.
Before installing this version of pyOpenSSL, please make sure that you uninstall any previously installed pyOpenSSL version. Otherwise, you could end up not using the included OpenSSL libs.
