As to that first splash screen, I hope it's temporary. The installer
is built with a tool from MindVision. I've talked to them about
letting us use it for free. So far, they've agreed that use for
"occasional tests and demos" is OK, and I'm still hoping that they'll
allow me to use it for distributing free software. If they do, that
first splash screen goes away.
Mindvision agreed to let me use the installer tool without charge. I think that's a great thing for them to do. But in return they want to keep that first screen as advertising, which seems fair. They were happy to add a "click to continue line".
The new screen is in the installer I just uploaded.
