[Qgis-developer] Build version 0.8.1 with Visual C++ 2005 Express

[Tim Sutton]

Hi David

Excellent stuff, Do you think you will be able to port your work to
trunk? I can aply your patch to 0.8.x branch but at this stage I am
unsure if there will be a 0.8.2 release or if we will proceed directly
to the release of 0.9.0 - so it would be a great addition to the trunk
of QGIS.

Regards

Tim
