I have a lot of experience with making professional installer files for
Win32. It's not that hard. I also have access to professional developer
tools to do this. However, they are proprietary, so it would be better =
to
base create the installer files using open source tools. But when I =

for those 2 years ago, I couldn=92t find any mature ones. Perhaps that =
