Hi Josh,
I also would like to see a msi. This is long awaited and might solve
some uninstall issues as well.
I was playing with the MS tools wix to create msi.
Adib.

Hey All,
I have a couple things I'm going to look into for 0.49. One thing is
offering msi installers. The other is potentially providing a native
64bit version as well.
There was recently a discussion, I believe on the gtk list, about
using OpenSuse's build service to compile windows binaries. I checked,
and indeed there is a 64bit version of Inkscape compiled for Windows
as well as all necessary 64bit libs (I have yet to test them, but it's
planned for this weekend). It's a little different since they're
packed in RPMs and use an "interesting" directory structure. However,
I bet with a little bit of scripting we could automate all aspects of
this and possibly add in re-packaging it and pushing automated nightly
builds to modevia.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Josh
