[GRASS-dev] Seeking advices for image segmentation algorithms and windows compile question

[Moritz Lennert]

Hi all,

[Bo, please keep such discussions on the list.]

Even though I agree with Maris that compiling in GNU/Linux is easier, I
do think that we should rather support those who want to develop in a
windows environment. We lack windows devs, and telling everyone at the
first difficulty to move over to GNU/Linux will not increase that
number.

Helmut, would you have any advice to give to Bo on his issue in
launching the windows version ?

Moritz
