Hi Jürgen, first of all thanks for your work and the offer. I doubt that we can change to vc2010 so easily. If we would switch, we would need a couple of MSVC professional licences for the release builders, the build bot and core devs. Also, I rather not have "yet another" build system to support inside our cmake and scons files. We already have VC 2008 and MinGW. And I don't think 2010 gives us a lot (if any?) benefits over 2008 as well.
And last but not least, if we do a migration, than I rather move to the latest one, rather than to 2010.
