The only reason I didn't choose VS2010 is that it's only beta at this moment. When it's out of beta, I agree we should use this instead. However, having a test buildbot system with the 2010 beta is probably a good idea, to get rid of compiler problems from it. > Bo> My list of systems to test the packages and do the compile + make test > on Bo> would be: > > Bo> XP Pro 32 bit > Bo> Vista 32 bit > Bo> Windows 7 64 bit > Bo> Server 2008 64 bit > > Bo> On XP, I'd install VC++ 2005, on the others VC++ 2008.

I hope we can have just two packages - 32 and 64 bit - that will install on all Windows systems. There might be differences between the systems that have to be handled in the packages, but I don't want to have two packages per Windows version. That would be *really* bad.
