While the subject of the installer is being discussed, I thought I'd
mention that the behavior of the install generated by the distribution
servlet is not what the "Node Distribution System" download page would
lead you to believe.  

Under "Installation Instructions" is says:
"Download the Installation Zipfile and unzip. On Windows, run install.exe..."

However, there is no install.exe in the ZIP or the distribution
directory.  There is a freenet-webinstall.exe, but this installer just
downloads the latest freenet.jar and seednodes.ref from hawk, which
kinda defeats the purpose.

I looked through the Contrib and freenet modules from CVS and neither
contained an install.exe I could add to my distribution directory or an
obvious way I could build one from linux.

I also downloaded a freenet.zip from Matthew's servlet and got the same
set of files I get from mine.

Is there any proposed fix for this?
