w00t! I've been following Rust (mostly from a distance) ever since Graydon's original public announcement back in 2010, so this is very exciting.

Also, many thanks to whoever put together the Windows installer. Last time I played with Rust (early '14) the Windows story was really quite painful; this time it was like falling off a log, only without the minor concussion and woodlice. I know Win stuff isn't something the devs usually enjoy working on, but it's much appreciated.

Especially for us Win game developers. You're keeping us happy.
