Daniele,

It is within the Kakadu source tree.  The problem with windows builds
that include Kakadu is that when I build Kakadu on windows, I actually
extract all the files I need out into a single directory and build them
with my own scripts rather than use the normal Kakadu build mechanism.
This lets me assemble the various files I need, including a bunch from
the kakadu apps subtree.  The downside it is essentially a process of
experimentation for other developers to figure out how this can be done.

I'd distribute a "collected and ready to build" version of the Kakadu
stuff for folk - except of course it isn't free software so I'm not
allowed to redistribute Kakadu source.  Generally speaking my assumption
has been that there are few folks who will want to build the Kakadu so
it isn't worth spending a lot of time streamlining the build process.

Best regards,
