The problem is that you always did your own thing with the installer.
I have never had a chance to contribute or discuss with you before you
do a change.
I always ask the developers for comments when I add new features (other
than NSIS code optimization and things like that).
What I want to try is to make this a team project with multiple
maintainers. That is, to have a single code base we can both work on.
Uwe, I think you should reconsider your position about this story.
Unless you find it fun to develop your own personal solution (in which
case I fully respect your POV) it really does not make sense to
duplicate the effort here. Time has passed and I reckon there are more
and more Windows users; so you'd do us all a great favor if you'd try to
collaborate with Joost. Code is meant to change, there is nothing
personal in rewritting one other's code. Looks at the massive code
rewrite 1.6 has seen if you want an example.
WRT the difference, it seems that only the position about ImageMagick is
different. Possibly you could add an option in the installer to allow
the user to install a minimal, fully tested, embedded version, couldn't you?
Uwe, this is just my 2 cents, if you still don't want to merge your
effort with Joost's just say "no", no need for another drama after the
embedding stuff :-)
