Re: RFC: KiCad windows installer proposal

 

Friendly ping :)
This is about a 2 year old
<https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-winbuilder/issues/53> bug that users still
complain
<https://forum.kicad.info/t/windows-nightly-too-big/7120/18?u=qu1ck>
regularly
<https://forum.kicad.info/t/btw-using-v5-now-for-3-days-after-some-hiatus-and/14395/14?u=qu1ck>
about <https://forum.kicad.info/t/kicad-installation/16680?u=qu1ck>.
I know this is mostly for nightlies but would be useful for stable release
too and since 5.1.3 is tagged already now is a good time to decide what to
do.
