Two small things to note:
- it's better to make a specific file name then using just "setup"
- when I first launched it it's frame was larger then my screen (1680x1050) and the title bar was off-screen.
Well done!

It looks very nice. I've considered creating a tool like this myself a few times. What are your plans for a OSX or Linux release?

I do not know. For the Linux version I would like to know if there is a tool like Inno Setup. For the OSX version, I never considered building a version for lack of time

well time is one issue -- having a Mac is the bigger one -- but if you
want to do it, using py2app and delivering with either a disk image or
a *.pkg is pretty straightforward.
AFAIK you don't need Inno Setup for Linux as the distutils package lets you
do it all.
yup -- if you want to deliver source.
Otherwise, the best option is to use the native package manager --
which means one for each major distro
( I don't know if the Linux Standard Base helps here -- I haven't been
keeping up )
Note that if you Open Source it, others will likely do the packaging for you.

I downloaded it (just to see it), I unpacked it, I found
a setup.exe and I gave up. Without too many regrets, because
my interest and my knowledge in db is closed to zero.
Do not missunderstand me, the message here is different.
I guess your application is build with the toolchain py2exe,
InnoSetup, ... . If this is the case, I suggest to distribute
only the bunch of the files created by py2exe (zip file) and
let the final user unpack it in the dir he wishes. He can run
it it just through the .exe.
If your application is built correctly, even with cfg files,
html help files or .py modules in sub dirs (and does not
required special stuff like com server), it can be deployed
(xcopied) on a simple usb key and it becomes *portable*.
This is in my mind a serious "selling" argument.
Like many, I just become reluctant to all this software
proposing/requiring an installation, creating menus, desktop
icons, esp. when it is not really necessary.
I create all my "serious" apps (Windows) in that ways and believe
me all these courageous users (students or PhD scientists) who are
using my apps - just by xcopying it on their portable hd - seem to
be very happy. I even insist, that if they do not want to use them
anymore, they can just *delete* it (not uninstall it).
