This is kinda mood as nobody seems to actually want to setup and 
maintain these. I certainly will not touch windows for efl builds. And 
some point I would be willing to look into automated mingw64 build 
though, cross-compiled from Linux.

I don't rule that somebody at some day may want to do this. But so far 
nobody showed up so we can happily ignore this.

My personal opinion is that we should just ignore this as well. They 
don't want people to devel something else then iOS apps. So why should 
we help them with our time?

A general idea we had was some way of having jenkins slaves that only 
report to the master. Leaving out the scary parts of a server 
controlling the PC in your home for doing the builds. I guess MacOSX 
would not care but I find it scary. :) Anyway, something like this is 
way down on my list. Way down.
