Windows dev-* environment

["Vlad Grecescu" <b100dian gmail com>]

Hello Gtk developers/users,

I was wondering if, now that gtk.org maintains a list of up-to-date Windows packages (binaries, dev-binaries and sources) it would be possible to make an installation kit out of them.
Something integrated with an mingw/msys installer, for the developers.

The problem is that there should be some kind of textual descriptions of the latest versions/latest URLs for both the binaries and the sources, on-line.

Something like
http://gtk.org/gtk.ini

[latest]
glib 2.18.1-2 "http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/glib/2.18/glib_2.18.1-2_win32.zip" "http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/glib/2.18/glib-dev_2.18.1-2_win32.zip" "http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/glib/2.18/glib-2.18.1.tar.bz2"
gtk 2.14.3 "http://..." "http://..." "http://..."
etc..

So the name of the package, the version, the URLs for binary/dev/sources. (have a look at http://www.mingw.org/mingw.ini for the inspiration)

This would allow an installer to: automatically install runtime or developement files, *and automatically upgrade everything*. It would also allow 64-bit compiling in the future:D

Well, what do you think?
I can start myself an nsis project with this if we agree.

Thanks,
