although all the advantages above look like very good step forward i'm afraid there is nobody around who is going to write new NSIS code (i suppose Uwe is not going to leave his code for some unfinished stuff he is not familiar with.)

That's why I think more people should be involved so that Uwe, myself and maybe some others will at least be reasonable familiar with the code.

I want to get familiar with the code. It would be nice if I could brew the installers as well. So, if you will explain what is necessary and what to update, I'm sure I must be able to do it without spending much time on it.


so more direct question would be whether you intend at least continue the old
standard installer...

I find the current situation with different types of installers way too confusing for users.

Me too.

The question is whether this is feasible for 2.0. Perhaps I could start with build instructions and a really basic installer script that does only what's necessary to install LyX itself. From there we could continue to add new features. However before doing anything like that we have to be sure everyone agrees with this approach.

I agree.
