RE: [GD-Windows] merge modules

[Gareth L. <GL...@cl...>]

If you are gonna go the MSI route, can I recommend using the vs.net install
project stuff. Assuming you are using vs.net it's free, and super simple to
use.

Another option might be to contact the makers of the speech sdk, maybe they
have other versions of the redist avaiable.
