For the last several releases, it's been possible to build Shotwell for
Linux (in its full glory) or for Windows (a limited alpha version
missing support for publishing, camera import, printing and possibly
other features). With the upcoming 0.8 release we're planning to drop
Windows support entirely: it will now be possible to build for Linux
only. Running on Windows was never a primary goal for Shotwell, and the
Yorba team simply does not have the resources to keep the Windows port
alive at this point; we'd rather focus on improving Shotwell for the
open source world.
If anyone cares about the Windows port and wants to volunteer to
maintain it, speak up now and we can keep the associated code alive in
our source tree with your help. Otherwise it will likely disappear with
the 0.8 release or soon afterward.
