Ok, then we need first some sponsors for hardware :) We're releasing
binary releases and not only a blob of source code. Then we need
somebody with deep knowledge about windows, all unixes, OS/2, DOS etc.
Further, he needs to know all unix package systems and is able to fix
errors in all the different installer information files from inno setup
to the home made DOS installer.
