re MSI based installer (again)
There was discussion in the past about providing MSI-based installer for
bzr.
I don't plan to work on it myself, but if bzr.exe will switch to Python
2.6 there will be need to redistribute MSVC CRT dlls, and it seems there
is already MSM modules for them provided by Microsoft itself.
So I just want to note that Mercurial guys have created MSI installer
recently, and maybe someone could port their effort to use for bzr
installer.

(They have used our early TBZR code to start working on TortoiseHg, now
we can get repay ;-)
