Why would you do that ?

It doesn't contain the files that are really needed for deployment.

Instead of copying the source directory into your ZIP file, you
should copy the installed version there, ie. what you find in
C:\Python2.5\Lib\site-packages\mx\

Since Windows cannot load DLLs from ZIP files, you'll need to
place the mxDateTime.pyd file into a directory on sys.path.

BTW: You can avoid all these problems by using a tool like py2exe
which will take care of bundling everything for you.
