Since it has been about a year with no PECL extensions for windows,
and I don't think theire ever will be, and I want to move to 5.3,
there are tough choices.
A: I can try downloading from source and compiling the pecl binaries
on windows. No experience compiling on windows, but I guess I can go
there...
B: Install a stripped down non-gui version of Ubuntu into VirtualPC or
VirtualBox, both of which I have on Windows7 here. Anyone know what
the performance of either would be? does one work faster than the
other? If we go this route, I might also have the Mac people do this
too.
Thanks!
