Building the installer isn't that much work, so it's important not to
think of what's involved as being just that.  It's keeping all the VMs for
every supported Windows platform going, then testing the resulting product
to make sure it still works on all of them after each packaging, that
takes up most of the time every time I do one of these.  Much harder to
get the whole process automated on Windows too.
