Code of Conduct

Hi! If you are referring to the 7-zip DLLs, I will surely provide some script to simplify building them from the original 7-zip source code. However, I don't think I'll provide precompiled binaries of them, at least not soon. The problem is that there are too many combinations of parameters with which the DLLs can be built (e.g., x86 vs x64, debug vs release, 7z.dll vs 7za.dll, and others). Building the precompiled versions of bit7z (https://github.com/rikyoz/bit7z/releases/) already introduces many parameters to take into account, and distributing the 7-zip DLLs is not the main objective of this project.
