Use subdirectories like `2013-07-01-esu/beginners`, so that main directory names always follow our four-part convention. + +* *What is the "Windows installer"?* +
+ We have built a small installation helper for Windows + that installs `nano` and `sqlite`, + adds R to the path, + and so on. + It is maintained in [this repository](https://github.com/swcarpentry/windows-installer), + which also has an up-to-date description of what it actually does. + The latest version is always available at + [http://files.software-carpentry.org/SWCarpentryInstaller.exe](http://files.software-carpentry.org/SWCarpentryInstaller.exe), + and contributions are always welcome.
