I need to install 2 versions of the same assembly into the Global
Assembly Cache (GAC) of our custom CE 5.0 device. I think what I need
to do is:

1) In project.bib, give one of the assemblies a different name
(probably using the version to define the name) so that both versions
can co-exist in the Windows folder.

2) In project.dat, put that file into another directory giving the
file back its original name at the same time.

3) Have a .gac file that references these 2 assemblies (same names but
in different directories).

Is this the right way? Is there a cleaner way without having to
rename assemblies.

Thanks,
