You are being unreasonable. 3.0.9 was released just a month ago. A new GnuTLS release happens every 2 weeks, how can you expect each one of them be ported to Windows at that pace? Do you think it's just the "./configure && make" dance we are used to on GNU/Linux? It took me a full week of uphill battle to do that with 3.0.9, what with all the prerequisite packages I needed to port first. The previous port before that was of v2.10, from a year and a half ago. How come it suddenly is so urgent to have the latest and the greatest? In any case, feel free to join the battle and help out, instead of coming up with such unreasonable requirements. > I was gonna bring that up next :) What does "semi-official" mean?

You (or anyone else) can find the prebuilt Windows binaries of GnuTLS 3.0.9 here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/files/
