Hi,
>From the homepage of project, http://mingwbuilds.sourceforge.net/
This is the MinGW-builds project ("mingwbuilds")
This project was registered on SourceForge.net on Mar 30, 2012, and
is described by the project team as follows:
Snapshots and releases builds of the MinGW compiler that use CRT
& WinAPI from the mingw-w64 project. Builds support the following
technologies: - OpenMP - LTO - Graphite - std Concurrency
So, the official homepage should be: http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/
Regards,
Debao
