I develop on Windows and deploy on Linux.  So I wouldn't use erlmerge at 
all if I didn't have access on both platforms.
I have done a brief review of the make and shell scripts.  I don't see 
anything in there that couldn't be done as batch scripts for 
Win2000/XP/2003.
I haven't looked into the erlang code itself.  But I assume this could 
be dealt with as well.
The problem would simply be having two different install and script sets 
to maintain.  If you guys are ok with that approach, I'll look into 
writing the install and shell scripts for Windows during September.  If 
you don't approve of this approach let me know so I don't waste my efforts.
