Hi tOnY, there is already a windows installer for Inkscape at least. I hope you can use that. It is NSIS-based, which is an open source installer. MSI is not an open source installer. Thus, you can see why we use NSIS, which many consider more effective... You can find this installer (.nsi) on our http://sf.net/projects/inkscape/ files page.
