     Works well here too, I will build betainstallers tomorrow.
     You think we are far enough along just to make yours the official

Yes, just didn't expect it to happen in 2.3.x.
I think we should go ahead and try it, then. From comments on the list,
I think quite a few people have used your installer now.
One of the major requests for the new installer was that we have available
script or very meticulous descritpion how to build it so we have reproducible
procedure and it is not necessarily one man show as it used to be.

How far are we from this goal?

Eugene will be able to answer better than I, but I believe we basically are there. There's no magic in building Eugene's installer, so far as I know. It's actually not the installer that is hard to build. You can run the NSIS script from the Windows file manager. (Just right click on it, choose "Compile NSIS script" or whatever.) Compiling is where the work is, but I think that the instructions in INSTALL.Win32 are up to date. Probably we should get some other Windows users to try following them before 2.4.0.
