[postgis-users] pg_routing 1.02

[Paragon Corporation]

Ravi,

We tend to agree with you on this.

Anton,

Is there a technical reason why you don't recommend windows aside from the
added effort of compiling against windows.  E.g. it just doesn't work under
windows?

We haven't tried it ourselves, but since we will be covering it in our book,
we were planning to compile for windows once we got to that chapter and test
under windows and linux.  If so of course we will be happy to provide
binaries.

I think a lot of people experiment on windows even if they eventually deploy
on Linux so seems like an important target audience even if it doesn't
perform quite as well under windows.

Leo and Regina

Hi Listers,
have been trying this on windows for a long time.
I was discouraged 'pl post on the list meant for it' etc..

Now it is a stright 'discourage'.
It again takes me back to a fundamental.. Is opensource and operating system
centric. Say in India, this is a big road block. Propagation of GIS may be
encouraged irrespective of OS used.
