"python ./run_tests"  will fail unless you have Active 
State's verison of python installed. 

I was initially working with latest from python.org 
but this does not have 'win32con', etc

Is win32con available as a download for regular python users?

I'm new to python so I won't comment further than to say it 
seems to be an undocumented dependency for the system. 

Because I am newish to Python it took me a while to twig.

Given one of the project's aims is "simple to install", I felt I 
should tell you, so it could be documented, saving others the 
smallish amount of pain I went through.

I don't want to restrict users unnecessarily either - if win32con is 
available through other channels, then I need to know about it...
