Re: Let's make a new release

Hi Michael, Jack and all,

Until pretty recently, I was unavailable due to my disease..
I am back now but would not be so active as before.

I didn't package the installer by myself but I believe it uses libpq
from EDB.

One thing I'd like to point out is about MSVC runtime library.
The installer installs MSVC runtime library msvcrxxx.dll used by the driver
but don't install the one used by libpq. If we use different version of MSVC
runtime, we have to add an procedure to install MSVC runtime used by
libpq.

regards,
Hiroshi Inoue
