Two observations:

Gilles sent us the DLL build (thank you, Gilles), but I had to update
the README.txt file. I removed the notice "This [DLL_FAQ.txt] is newer
than win32\DLL_FAQ.txt distributed with [...]" (because this is no
longer true), and I replaced "Contributed by Cosmin Truta" with
"Contributed by Gilles Vollant" (because this is how it is).

And the second one: The file win32/zlib1.rc mistakenly uses 1,2,2,0
instead of 1,2,3,0 as the version string. This is reflected in the DLL
build, send by Gilles and repackaged by me. I did nothing about it,
because it's a minor issue anyway.


Best regards,
Cosmin
