I don't personally see what the big issue is with portability of C code to
Windows... unless the Freenet-in-C node code does __exceptionally__ weird
stuff won't it just compile fine with Cygwin?

Anywho, how's Whiterose coming along?  I'd personally prefer to run a node
written as a Java-to-C++ port than a Java-to-C port.
I know there's development effort ongoing to make a freenet node written in
C++ for Microsoft Visual Studio [BTW - sorry Matt, i __still__ haven't had a
chance to look at __any__ of that stuff, and my many attempts to build GMP
as a dll failed at the last hurdle.. :( ]
Do we need all these versions?  Perhaps one in 'C++' and (at a pinch) one in
'C'.  Oi Reckon.

Dunno about that ...  Windows isn't exactly the most stable OS.  Unless by
'installation' you mean casual freenet node rather than 24/7 node?
