It's a wiki, you are free to add stuff there if you intend to help with a port to 64-bit Windows, if that is what the rather cryptic mention on that page means... I personally don't have any plans to port Evolution to 64-bit Windows.

Sure, that has been available for quite some time already. There are binaries available on the gnome ftp site, see http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/desktop/2.14/2.14.0/win32/README.evolution . (No Win32 binaries of 2.14.1, unfortunately.) Once GNOME 2.14.2 (and Evolution 2.6.2) is released I will upload fresh builds. There are no nightly builds (of HEAD, you presumably mean?). I build HEAD of e-d-s and Evolution (etc) only a couple of times a month to make sure the Win32 support doesn't bitrot. --tml ___ Evolution-hackers mailing list Evolution-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
