Is it possible to deploy a Python application on the Mac App Store?

Question

Does Apple accept Python applications for distribution on the new Mac App Store?

If so, how should the application be packaged? Is py2app sufficient? Something else?

Answer 1

I know it's possible because I know of at least one Python-based app that is in the app store ("Pennywise", which is based on my own app, moneyGuru, which uses Python + PyObjc + py2app). I didn't do it myself, so I'm not sure of the details.
