Olive 0.11.0 on Windows XP

[Eugene Wee]

Hi,

Ah, going the Python-based installer route for Bazaar solved my problems. I 
edited the Olive page on the wiki to make it clear that the Python-based 
installer is the way to go (in my opinion, the previous comment made it seem 
like the standalone installer should be used, but the Python-based installer was 
okay for use). The tip on creating a Python-based installer for Olive was great!

Thanks,
Eugene Wee
