This is not my impression these days.
Who, other than you, is working on the Windows version regularly? How many people are using the SVN versions on Windows? The number of people using the 6.3.0 release on Windows doesn't matter; that isn't going to help us discover any Windows-specific bugs which get introduced during future development. E.g. the Tk error handler was added to NVIZ nearly three months ago (2008-04-05). That caused NVIZ to fail to compile on Windows. I only discovered the issue yesterday, which implies that no-one has compiled 7.x (including NVIZ) on Windows in the last three months. If someone introduced a Linux-specific compilation bug, we'd typically discover it within a matter of hours. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
