This means that you don't have python23.dll on your system.

Python24 is not currently supported by the binary installer (see the
installation instructions).

Correct. It might work if you put it in 8.0.0-rc4\bin though. Or add the
directory where it's already in to your PATH.

I *think* we require a full python installation, not just the DLL file.
I'm not 100% sure on that. It currently supports Python23, which is also
in the installation instructions. If someone can confirm that we need
only the DLL, we can definitly include it in our distribution.
So - can someone who knows enoughh aboyt plpython speak up on that one?
