hi Christian,
That's great news. As Ken mentioned, we'll happily accept patches,
the smaller the better. I'd also like to set up a Windows build slave
so that we can start building and regressing our code on that platform
(
http://build.willowgarage.com). I'm pretty ignorant of Windows
development tools; what would you recommend for a system configuration
to build ROS on Windows (OS version, VisualStudio/compiler version,
other stuff to be installed, etc.)? I'm guessing that it'll be
easiest for us to replicate whatever environment you're currently
working with.
