With regards to the development version it would also be reasonable to provide a build quite frequently to be in sync with the latest changes in trunk. These are the main reasons I've originally set up http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/ to provide most of the resonable combinations as daily built packages. I also wanted to include these files in an installer (or multiple installers) but at the moment I don't see the real benefit of this over extracting a single zip package, since these libraries don't require significant preparation (like regkey entries) during the deployment. Any further consideration in this topic would be helpful, as I may have missed something that would also be important by a windows user. Best regards, Tamas
