nice! I actually see 
https://github.com/gisinternals/buildsystem/blob/refactor/config.opt 
with the URLs of the upstream repositories, and the build commands in 
https://github.com/gisinternals/buildsystem/blob/refactor/Makefile

Is the refactor branch the one used for the builds at gisinternals.com ? 
(said otherwise, why isn't it the master branch ?)
