Well, I honestly don't really care what installer you use as long as it
works (that's why I brought it up now ;-)), but should you leave the
project suddenly for whatever reason (sickness, death, work, etc.), there
would be no installer anymore. It would be logical that any project member
could build such a thing by only downloading some free tools. Additionally:
if it were only an update to the installer software that was needed,
everyone on the project could have updated it. But now the fix takes longer
because it depends on a single person's personal access to commercial
software.
Don't get me wrong: your installer is better than no installer (and worked
well before this issue popped up out of nowhere), but it is still
suboptimal for an open source project run and maintained by various people.
Cheers,
Ruben
