Over the past year, I have made various attempts to share the techniques that I use to create the Mono Combined installer for Windows. As the release date for Mono 1.2 draws nearer, Novell prepares to become the packager of the Mono for Windows installer. To assist with the hand off, I have created a snapshot of the build directory that I used to emit the Mono 1.1.8 installer.
Folks wanting to create a specific installer for a particular need may find this useful. You can learn more about the construction kit in this location.
I am a bit nostalgic because this signals the end of an era for me. However, Novell is a great company and my best hope for an international enterprise class computing leader on software innovation. The installer could not be in better hands!
