I plan to try but I cannot promise anything yet.

I'm not sure if a quick-and-dirty installer (if that's what you
meant) is a good idea. The problem about installers is that you
do more harm than good if you don't do it right and if you do
it can take serious amounts of time. If the binaries were requested
maybe we should not write installers and release asap?

In general I am wondering if the vorbis-tools binary thing
should be more like snapshots or bound to releases.
In the latter case we could try to mix the "build system"
from trunk with the code from the latest releases.
I think we need advisory from one of the Vorbis developers.
Any volunteers?

Is there a way to get files in there bypassing subversion?
Or do we want the packages to go into the repository?
Even with a snapshot model?
