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.)
