Re: Windows Port

[tim netsimplex com]

I don't know specifically what functionality works and what doesn't. That
was kind of part of my question. Right now I think I'm up against getting
libfspot and the other non-C# parts to compile and work with the build I'm
working on right now, so that's what I started preparing for last night.

Mainly I just want feedback in general and to let people know there is
someone out there actually trying to tackle this. As soon as I can get
basic photo management (importing from the hard drive) working, I will be
releasing something people can look at.


cheers,

slightly different note, aren't the basic gnome libraries working on
windows these days?
