I said Windows native developers *DO NOT* want Linux cross-compilation, so I'm hoping someone will spare themselves the trouble of writing such a thing. Or at least recognize that they're doing it for Linux developers, not Windows developers. My wish for more Windows support from that crowd is just that, wishful. I said up front that I realize Linux / Mingw developers aren't into Windows and don't care. I just want people to be honest about what they care about and what practical good it is to anybody. > and doing nothing at all to address it. This is not the > only place you've been doing that. More nonsense. What do you think http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocamlgames/ is for? What do you think we've been discussing lately? If you don't have patience for the level of output, too bad. Go start your own game project that solves all the deployment and mindshare problems. > I seriously doubt that anybody here wants to work with Windows.

To do so would be to admit that OCaml can *NEVER* achieve a good market position, compared to Java, C#, or even Python. > OK then.

Geez, it's, like, sooooo much more effective to assist someone else who's ALREADY DEVELOPING OCaml game stuff on Windows. Are you going to keep spouting off, or are you going to check out the ocamlgames list sometime? Are you into solutions or histrionics?
