Rapha,

indeed I do have experience with installers, started with them during 
the M$ SMS 2.0 days...  I've used NSIS a couple of times too and others 
as well.

I think that those that want bleeding edge releases should use a 
git-client.  For all others, an automatic installer for each stable 
release would be ok.  It does beg the question how the Windows release 
is going to be integrated in the current test system.  I suppose it 
would be best to re-run the tests on a Windows platform, but that would 
require setting up a second infrastructure, and it would also require 
the test to be repeated for each and every compiler that Liberty-Eiffel 
is going to contain in the installer...
