    1) Combine 32-bit and 64-bit installers into one

    Is there a use-case for installing 32-bit OpenVPN on a 64-bit system?
    If not, we could combine both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries into a single
    installers and, at install time, select the correct ones to install.
    This would increase installer size from ~1.8MB to ~3.3MB.



3.3M? Umm, what year is this? :-)

I'd say put them both into the installer and auto-install the
appropriate one. If it was 18M vs 36M you might want to be more finer
grained - but <2M difference? It's not worth thinking about.

Ditching WinXP is definitely the right thing to do. People shouldn't be
running security software on dead OSes. They will do it poorly. Just sayin'

Well, that would mean the installer will have to split into three floppy disks instead of two for transport.

But seriously, a combined installer looks like a reasonable way forwared. It will, however, require significant changes to openvpn-build/openvpn.nsi, so it will take a bit of effort to get it done.
