Since there seems to be no interest out there for Windows binaries [1], should we stop advertising the old ones which are currently available? After all, even MS compilers are now freely available, and it isn't difficult to build mod_perl (or httpd and perl).
The old (5.8.x) builds on http://archive.apache.org/dist/perl/win32-bin are so far out of date as to be a bit of an embarrassment now. Simply not providing binaries looks better than providing hugely out of date ones. The only thing that does need to be retained is the Win32 port of the apxs tool, which I recently uploaded a 0.7 version of (with a minor warnings fix) at http://users.perl5.git.perl.org/~steveh/. Should we get that moved across to http://archive.apache.org/dist/perl/win32-bin and remove the old stuff (or at least move it into an 'archive' folder of some kind)?
