Hello, a bit of feedback:
1) There is no code that shows how the installer was build or for
anyone to collaborate.
We would end "trusting" you that the installer does what you say it
does.
2) Your installer request elevation of privileges.
Along with #1, this might affect the ability of installation for
certain users under constrained environments.
3) Seems to me that your work overlaps with the work done by
RailsInstaller developers:
http://railsinstaller.org/
Why not work together instead of duplicate the effort?
Seems you have included Ruby + DevKit and the required gems for Rails
3.1 to work, exactly the same of what RailsInstaller provides.
Perhaps you can contribute to them installation instructions to
properly build and package on next version mysql and mysql2 gems with
libmysql.dll?
Cheers,
