I know. But NSI file in SVN is very hard to read because it in one file, hasn't clear structure. It uses not relative links. I have made a little bit better structure. I have divided into parts this big file, have used relative links, and have put the compiler, IDE, wxWidgets binaries in one archive (zip). So, it easer to use, to update.

Just an observation, but here is one point of view from myself on the subject.
I've seen a lot of posts suggesting the use of the Latest Nightly Builds when one mentions the last stable release 8.02.
The same case with when one questions when the next stable release is due out.
When jumping from 8.02 to a latest Nightly Build, it is extremely difficult to determine what has actually changed if one simply downloads the binaries.
Some features are implemented differently. Some have been made redundant. Most of all, countless number of new features have been added.
It is easy for users like myself who have constantly been using the Nightly Builds to track the changes.
But for someone jumping from 8.02 to a latest Nightly, I imagine it would seem like using a different IDE.
Hence, there are some posts occasionally where one tried out a Nightly Build but immediately returned 8.02.
I am not aware of a page where all changes since the release of 8.02 are listed (Does one exist?).
Maybe at least a link to a page to something like the SVN change log on each Nightly Build thread might help users jumping from 8.02.
Again, this is an observation I have made reading recent posts across the forum.
I believe a new stable release would be beneficial in a number of ways, but at the same time understand the difficulties presented in this thread.

Yes, this link may prove useful for some users jumping from 8.02 to a recent Nightly Build or between Nightly Builds.
I must say though, that it is not exactly a simple task to browse over 1000 logs and spot all changes (8.02 was based on Rev.4913).
I imagine most users reluctant to use a latest Nightly Build require a simplified summary of changes since the release of 8.02.

Not exactly what you mention but more readable: http://apt.jenslody.de/ChangeLog.
