Ah, ok.  Was just offering. :)  Now to just install it on my newly built Windows 8.1 Enterprise laptop :)  


As as sidenote, I've gotten my housemate using nothing but Subsurface after using the application that Suunto puts out.  He likes the fact that Subsurface loads faster and hold just about as much, or in some cases more than the vendor's app. :)

If you look at the Gtk branch you'll see that we already had most everything in place.
packaging/windows/mingw-make.sh create-windows-installer (from memory, I'm on my phone) would use the subsurface.nsi.in file, fill in version info and then call makensis.
All we need to do is modify things to call this from the new build infrastructure and adjust the .nsi file...

Thanks
