Works fine and a Win installer is ready (the merged one). I'll leave the

is this regression wrt 2.0.0 installer? if not why wait...
Yes, Joost's installer is able to install LyX without admin priviledges. To achieve this, he use
special compiled version of ImageMagick. This is not a suitable solution because we should rely on
official releases. Moreover ImageMagick releases very often and our goal was that more than one
developer is able to build the Win installer. Therefore we should concentrate on the LyX stuff and
use the official releases.
The next time I find time, I'll work on the remaining ImageMagick issue. The problem is that
ImageMagick requires a registry entry in HKLM but this can only be set with admin priviledges.
Besides this, the new installer was not yet tested by users.
