What would be great is a cross-compiler based on the cygwin package that would allow the developers to build win32 versions without having to have access to a win32 platform. That way they could at least test to make sure that it builds. Couple that with VMWare and you're flying :-) Seriously though, win32 is particular hard to do automated testing. Maybe we could use cygwin for running the test-suite under win32 and at least be able to use standard *nix tools? I haven't really looked at the test-suite, so this is just a (hopefully) helpful suggestion. --Wez.
