maybe I'm just too old, but: what is the issue with MLs? And: can you
suggest a better alternative?

Please remember that releasing is different from packaging. AFAICT, you
are encountering packaging problem. It may be pointless to you, but it
is important for us, because we have to address these problems in
different ways.

Please also remember that Windows packaging involves a tremendous amount
of effort and skills, and it is being done as a favour for our Windows
users.
It would be good if someone could pay a developer to work on Windows
(but also OSX, etc.) packaging.

If someone is interested, please contact the QGIS-PSC.

Thanks.
