I think one thing that holds up releases is the Win32 installer.  Last I 
heard, we use a non-free tool to generate the installer.  I think we 
ought to switch to Inno Setup, which I've used before with great 
success... even through Wine. ;-)

(On a tangent, there ought to be a program called "Linno Setup".  It 
would provide an easy installation wrapper for Linux software downloaded 
from the 'net, bringing a lot more people to Linux.  I think this hasn't 
been done yet because of concerns over Linux viruses, but we could deal 
with most of that through code signing.)
