I think is good and I have interest... but you saw this link?
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus#Compiling.2Finstalling_FPC_and_Lazarus_from_Sources_of_SVN_.28Win32.29

This tutorial uses BAT files and it works too.
When I maded this tutorial, I wanted to do more simple I could.

When I did this tutorial, I wanted to do it in the simplest way
possible. So I didn't put the commands for SVN and also did it in
pieces (to make it easier to understand).

Maybe you could post your method on the wiki so that we could evaluate
the pros and cons ... What do you think?
