I tried running the .ipynb associated with the Entropy Maximization example at cvxpy website. The notebook uses CVXOPT as the solver. When I run the same notebook, I am getting the error that ends with the message:

SolverError: Either candidate conic solvers (['CVXOPT']) do not suppo

When we first started using appveyor, they didn't have python or conda support. They now do. We should likewise update our appveyor scripts so they become simpler.

Ideally, the Windows wheels and conda packages are deployed from appveyor.

Packaging link for posterity.

The performance and utility of the C templates can definitely be improved. If you have ideas discuss them here!
