They actually build wheels now (lol), the builder having some upgrades has
meant that the whl has a different name (cp27-cp27m, not cp27-none). I
noticed it last night, just went to bed before I fixed it :)
I think MSIs are generally a bad way to distribute Python libraries. We
are still building them for some reason, and the builder has a bad recent
https://buildbot.twistedmatrix.com/builders/windows7-64-py2.7-msi
Is there any reason we shouldn't get rid of this?
Thanks all,

aaaaand this is why we ask stuff on the mailing list before randomly
deleting stuff :)
There is a ticket in the review queue for adding a tox env for
building the wheel https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8544

Once that is done, there is a follow up ticket for moving the builder
on Appveyor https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8676
