Since I have not followed the latest in the installer saga, may I ask:
what is the status? Uwe, your announcement makes it sound as if this
is the official installer. But I see that Bo and Christian continue to
work on the other one.
Bo, Christian, what is your assessment of the situation?
If I understand the current situation right:
1. NSIS is more difficult to grasp than I (we?) expected,
2. The two installers are quite different, which makes part to part
comparison or merge difficult,
3. Joost and Uwe generally agreed to merge the installers but put no
action in the process. By action, I mean reading *another* installer,
evaluate and help us merge.
4. I was quite busy with moving and other things, and my reduced lyx
time was sometime used by more interesting (urgent?) tasks. Christian
has spent more time on the installers and I expect him to lead the
merge.
As far as I can see, without actual involvement from J and U, the
merge will be very difficult.
Cheers,
Bo
