Personally, I wouldn't use this. For libraries I always prefer building
from source (if possible), so I can make sure it inter-ops with my
compiler version. The current process of building Crypto++ is already
quite comfortable. You extract it somewhere, open VS, and hit "Build"
and it just builds and is fully working (in a few minutes).

So, as a experiment I think we can offer it and see how many people use
it as soon as we have an "official" release (5.7.0 / 5.6.3) finished.

And I think OpenSSL installer / pre-built binaries is a lot more useful
than Crypto++, because all what people need from OpenSSl is the openssl
command line tool (in 90% of the cases). But personally I've never used
cryptest.exe yet...
