There were instructions but I think they were not complete in certain
ways, I can certainly modify it to better reflect what is needed
The problem I had was the PO files, it seems that gettext or libiconv
were returning a non 0 error code saying something about file
descriptors, funnily enough I googled the error message and found that
tortoiseSVN lists that message as 'normal' in a log checker program
they have for their own installer!
So are the po files normally required for the win installer? I removed
gettext from my path so it didn't attempt to compile the po files, but
I can modify the installer script to accept the non zero return code if
its actually doing anything. If its just erroring out id like to know
how previous people dealt with that issue
I'll upload the installer I have tommrow

Mark, thanks for the work to get the windows installer built!
Anybody know where the windows installer has been placed for test and
verification before release? I didn't find any mention of the place
in the announcements of 2.6b1 or 2.6b2. The only place I found
windows installers was at the official download page.[0]
Thank you for taking notes on the process. We'd like to get those
integrated into the documentation to make it easier (fewer curses and
less hitting of heads;>) the next time. I'm curious, did you refer to
(or know about) the build instructions in the repository?[1]
Sincerely,
Richard
