Great.

That's what I get for not checking the survey results daily. :-)

Cool site! As far as binaries go, we're GPL, so it's always OK for you to
distribute your builds in whatever way you wish:
http://www.abisource.com/personal.phtml
In an ideal world, we'd have an Alpha/NT box in-house so we could
automatically build and sell an official/branded/supported AbiWord version
whenever we do a release for all our other platforms, but at the moment we
don't. (If you know who we should contact at Compaq for this, drop me a
private email.)

InstallShield! :)
Eric will be quite happy to hear that. :-)
