Has anyone got CouchDB successfully built on Windows? I feel silly
asking this but for better or worse Windows is what I know. On the

up to a whole new audience to try out.
I have tried following the directions posted here
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/InstallingOnWindows, but I can't seem
to find binaries for SpiderMonkey anywhere on the Mozilla site, nor
have I had any luck compiling it from source (the *.mdp file is too
old to open in Visual Studio and NMAKE craps out with some
unintelliglible error).
That is basically where I ended up when trying the outlined procedure
on MingW. This is all very unfortunate. I don't really have the
resources
to dive deeper into this but maybe somebody here can pick up the lose
ends or send a request for information to the Mozilla devs?
A native Windows build would be highly appreciated!
Cheers
