Indeed. Upgrading from a per-user installation is easy, as the whole
process starts with the assumption that it is going to be per-user. Only
per-machine were previously not upgradable.

Yes, and thanks :-) Part of my recent talking goes along with the hope
that others become interested enough in MSI as a technology to be able
to contribute, though.

While I have your attention: you have commented that the installer logo
needs attribution, during the installation process. Is this still the
case, and what is the text I should use? Any other attribution that
needs to be made?

A colleague has commented that logo is too low-res, is ugly, and does
not feature reptiles. Should we look for an update to the logo?
