Need side-project with baseline environment

Need a virtualenv,package or whatnot for various platforms for users to quickly start using gwinc from unmaintained python installs. Needs some simple activation scripts and documentation.

If setup.py is written, then this should be easy to maintain for platforms just with

virtualenv gwinc
cd gwinc
. bin/activate
pip :gwincpath:/setup.py install

or similar. How do other groups handle mac packages?
