Erik --

What is the justification? Moving from more immediately usable to less
immediately usable doesn't seem, on the surface, to be  a good direction.
Why not go the other direction and pre-build the binaries for the other
environments?

Thanks,

Tim

Subject: [edk2] RFC: Proposal to halt automatic builds of Windows BaseTools
executables

I would like to propose that the automatic builds of Windows BaseTools
executables be halted.  This implies there will no longer be updates to the
edk2-BaseTools-win32 repository.

With this change, developers using Windows must install Python 2.7.x and
configure their environment to build C tools  and run python scripts from
sources.  This matches the development experience for non-Windows
environments.

Please respond with comments by 03/23/2018.

Thanks,
-Erik
