I honestly have no clue at all how windows packaging is done. What I would expect as a user or developer is thought that all binaries, dll/libs and header files are installed so I can start developing with it. > Where can they be hosted?

If the path with win builds does not work out we could host the windows binaries next to our source tarballs. Only for releases thought. > It would be perfect if someone has working build server able to build > EFL on Linux so we could add Windows build to it. Before anyone screams Jenkins here. I will only consider new things it handles when its current problems are sorted and we have a longer period of stable usage. We had cross builds for efl with mingw for some time but the cross build slave started crashing and after this dragged out for over a year I disabled the mingw builds. regards Stefan Schmidt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
