           Summary: Improve the installer so that it is automated instead
                    of requiring so many manual steps. Also, develop
                    streamlined release process so that minor releases
                    2.1, 2.2, etc. can be accomplished more rapidly.

(7) Improve the installer so that it is automated instead of requiring so many
manual steps. Also, develop streamlined release process so that minor releases
2.1, 2.2, etc. can be accomplished more rapidly.

This is critical if we want to make more frequent releases. Also, application
wide resources that need to be updated with every incremental release should be
stored in one module. An ideal candidate would be the Kepler suite module. That
way, if a patch occurs, the splash screen and other resources can all easily be
updated to reflect the patch. The splash screen should not longer be done in
photoshop, but instead a method should be devised such that text indicating the
version number is somehow merged with a background image.
