for me - inkscape seems to run fine from a file location on windows (I.e. an unzipped dev build) - so maybe we don't need an installer for the dev builds. just the release builds...?
in which case a zip is fine for dev builds... But maybe its easy to build the installer for windows too - I don;t know..

There is a PPA for trunk (daily) for Ubuntu users, and the most recent development snapshot build for Windows available for download is r13146, uploaded on March 14, 2014.
These steps are good, but certainly not ideal. I'm thinking about ways to put the download link on the inkscape.org website and perhaps if we can ask the builder of the packages to upload or link to a fixed name like "inkscape_trunk_latest.foo" etc
I'm also not keen on 7z files for distribution. exe or msi files for windows. Although perhaps the 7z is something to do with the one drive.
The alternative is that we carve out a small space on the inkscape website itself for posting the latest builds for the platforms and keep them there. Just one version (we only have 8GB on the server) make a little web form to put them up.
thoughts?
