Are there any plans to include this soundfont into other release packages? Would be really handy to have this soundfont included in the Windows installer or .zip package - great improvement in MIDI quality compared to the quite crappy Microsoft MIDI synthesizer.

It is up the relevant port maintainers.

@Kirben, what's your opinion on this topic? I guess you know how bad the default Microsoft General MIDI driver compares to a good soundfont in FluidSynth.

No plans to bundle any soundfont, especially due to the large increase in file size. There is a variety of soundfonts available online, if people are looking for better quality. Although I suspect Munt is a more popular option for games offering Roland support.
