Yes, if you deliberately ignore the first 4 links you will get the older versions… I will make the wiki more clear, however I didn't want to remove others contributions from the wiki; the process I use for building CouchDB on Windows draws heavily on Mark's original patches & contributions, and Juhani's fixes for a critical issue in Erlang/OTP. As Adam's pointed out we are working on improving how these all hang together on the couchdb.org website. I'd love to see some people offer to help with packaging and testing. At least from a Windows perspective the minimum requires 4h to set up your environment, and about ~ 1h per release to build & test. I'd feel a lot more comfortable knowing people other than me have tested it. A+ Dave
