Win32 binaries with SDE, anyone ?

[ANDY CANFIELD]

I know you guys are working on the fcgi for win32 but if they want something
sooner there is another option. DM Solutions can do custom builds for people
at their hourly support rate. I sat down and worked it out once. I could get
all kinds of custom stuff put into the build at their rate for much less
than if you factor in all the time it would take me to get it all set up to
compile. ( At the time I was just trying to get more layers into mapserver )
I believe they produce nightly WIN32 binaries so I wonder if it would just
be faster fot these folks to get a custom compiled binary? We have found the
rate more than reasonable and it gives us more time to actually build
applications against the binaries rather than using that same time trying to
get something to compile just to begin testing against. That way they could
have a solution up and going and tested and then in the future they could
get the fcgi binaries from you guys. Just a thought anyway.
