Yeah. My rational for prepend vs append is that
with prepend it is a sort of in your face type thing. Append is a little
bit more laid back and not quite so obnoxious. Usually with a custom
version of something I want to know (and would like the users to know
that they are running a custom version).

I don't really want to host something that isn't ready for
general consumption. However, once the major kinks are worked out...
(I'm going to probably regret this next statement)... but I would be
happy to host the w32 installers on the geda sites (probably on sf with
a link on the main download page to control bandwidth usage).

Nothing of the sort, just my silly stubborness.
