Branches for the installer is not a bad solution.
Then I'll just upload the installer to the current location and we'll
have a different branch for 1.4 and 1.5. I want to finish this now.

Aspell releases are not frequent at all. Same for Aiksaurus (2003), etc.

I agree. Lars, is this SVN directory OK?

Binaries on the FTP server and patches in SVN is also fine with me.
This is what I just proposed.
Then the remaining question is whether to maintain identical installers in
branch and trunk or have a separate directory.
Which ever is easier for you.

The binaries (including headers and libs like your Aspell package)

We can do patch, source and binary of external programs. They are in

The 1.4 releases will use MinGW. For future 1.5 releases I will try to

I think it's better to upload the complete source of Aspell etc. instead
of just a patch. This will allow the whole package to be compiled at

I'm currently working on a package with the source code of the new
