You don't have to do it but the svn version is always the 'latest and greatest(tm)' (minus the occasional bugs crawling in but you have svn so no problem with that). I don't know about Win but it can't be that hard (perhaps for Joe User but you are a developer after all). I assume you talk about this page: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_Lazarus. Please provide detailed feedback where you had problems and what is not explained good enough so that the documentation can be improved.
