I've just packaged and uploaded a new version of the Win32 PostgreSQL
installer beta, with PostgreSQL 8.0 Beta 1 and todays snapshot of
pgAdmin III. This is a beta for the installer as well as PostgreSQL
itself, so please report bugs for either. Bug reports for pgAdmin are
also welcome at [email protected] as we are nearing our own
beta.

This version of the installer includes various changes from the last
version:

- Add zlib.dll used by pg_dump et al. for compression
- Warn the user that initdb may take a couple of minutes.
- Allow user selection of service ID (allowing multiple postmaster
services to be installed).
- Write service details to a predicable location in the registry for use
by control/client programs.
- Set the default service account name to 'postgres'
- Add missing encoding, sort the list.
- Various spelling/layout cleanups.
- pgAdmin now automatically detects local servers and allows
startup/shutdown of them.
