Hi all, is there someone (Marco?) who is going to prepare Windows installer for RC1 with wxGUI support (propably except of vector digitizer and Nviz extension)? I'm just back in office. I'm 455 mails late... but I'll start to work on the new GRASS build right now. The blocking thing is related to the building environment update I planned; in fact, some problems in the GRASS building are generated by some MSYS/MinGW lacks... that's why I decided to replace my current MSYS installation with a fully updated one... and here that's the problem! the MSYS project is poorely documented, and the 1.0.11 version of the istaller, even if available on the repository, is not officially present in the project list... but it seems to be more recent (and bug fixer) than the currently proposed one... even if not fully updated! and the updated are a little be confused (in the way you cannot just unpack the new files because some updates overwrite each other creating messy and buggy installations). I've been reading some articles and mails and I'm figuring how to solve this messy situation... I think I can give you a precise dead-line in about one or two days. I'm sorry, but I also have my regular work here ;) ... I'll do as best as I can. Regards... and happy new year :) - Ing.
