Everyone else is Linux/Unix/Mac oriented. If you're volunteering to help then that's awesome. I agree w/ Peter - start w/ Jeff Lenk since he's pretty much the only person who "does it all" on Windows. I'm sure he would be glad to have someone help. Also, talk to Ken Rice - he's the main point man on doing new builds/releases. If you can make it easy for him to get Windows binaries built up in some sort of automated fashion then that would be extremely helpful. <br><br>Thanks!<br><br>-MC<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Wed, Sep 26, 2012 at 9:33 AM, Peter Olsson <<a href="mailto:peter.olsson@visionutveckling.se" target="_blank">peter.olsson@visionutveckling.se</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jeff Lenk is probably the best guy to talk to about this (jlenk on IRC).<br><br>And yes, there are lots of warnings. However, they are from the third party libs, FS itself has a clean build. I've been using the Windows version for a couple of years, and it runs really good, so there is nothing to worry about really. I do agree though that it would be good (especially for new users) if the stable versions are available as compiled binaries.

Only the unstable head of git built weekly.<br><br>Also, the pre-built installer doesn’t allow me to select an install directory, and is unaware of modern Windows install hierarchies.

But the build has literally hundreds of warnings, so can I trust it? My day-time job is as a software engineer in a ‘no warnings’ environment, where code cannot be checked in if it generates warnings, so that’s a bit of a culture shock. I haven’t tried building the linux build to see if this is a VS2010 issue.<br><br>But rather than moan about it, I’d like to help. I’d like to sort out the installer, for instance, so it is brought up to date and can install on the latest OSs without kludges. But I’d also like to see it being used to generate stable Windows pre-builds at the end of it - which would presumably be done by someone looking after the download site? So where do I start?
