Yes thank you to all involved in making this release happen! ________________________________ From: gnucash-user <[email protected]> on behalf of David T. via gnucash-user <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 30, 2026 2:09 AM To: Gnucash Users <[email protected]>; John Ralls <[email protected]>; [email protected] <[email protected]> Cc: gnucash-devel <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [GNC] ANNOUNCE: GnuCash 5.15 Released
John, As always, thank you! I note the mention that 64-bit compilation is now "supported" on Windows. Does this mean that the 5.15 binary for Windows is now 64-bit? Or that intrepid users can compile it themselves? Cheers, David T.
