hello,
i have an almost ready instructions on how to target win32 from win32 for
subsurface.
i.e. place something on the website for windows devs as its a bit
complicated....

but i have some (mostly legal) questions:
1) would it be ok to distribute all the runtime libs (DLL) in a zip from the
website - seems like the win32 install package is doing that pretty much? is it
required to provide source code download links in the zip archive in question;
or something else ?
2) i have a folder over here called c:\dev\linuxlibs\... containing all the
needed libraries + a pkg-config setup (.PC files). would it be ok to zip this
one as well and provide it for download from the website. would this violate
licenses ?

the idea would be to make it _quite_ easy for a win32 developers to just grab
the latest dev-src directory for all the packages like (libdivecomputer,
libxml), use a makefile, build...and after the exe is compiled place it amongst
the required DLL's from the other zip.
