The "expected exe file "was created and uploaded, i am absolutely sure since i \
downloaded and installed few days ago

If is not anymore there,(i didn't check i trust your words ) i suppose is because \
show evident problems

obviously dev. releases may be unstable and a bit buggy, but in this case, instead \
then the improvement of the text tool described in "what is new" was possible only \
experiment crash each time the text tool was used, and connected crashes for each of \
the logos script.

Seems to me a good reason to remove and then hopefully replace the file
.

I reported the problem on the developer list not to hassle the developers but only \
because i thought the problems of that build were critical and not yet noticed.

I have no idea why the topic was moved on this list, if you want try the last SVN i \
suggest to build it in linux that is not to hard, compiling for win is far more \
complex, and seems evident that in that build something went wrong...so if was \
removed may be for good reasons.

Then if you really want that exe  should be not hard (i.e. with Internet Archives or \
maybe even using google or yahoo cache) get a copy.

Obviously at your risk, i noticed other  problems (just 1 example,

after cropping the cropped part is still displayed and remain visible even if is no \
more part of the image and so not editable...)

 but i thought was not the case to report them since they may be limited  to a \
peculiar, experimental and unlucky Windows build
