Hi Everyone, I know some folks have been chomping at the bit for this one... I just want to make sure we don't have strong objections.
How do folks feel about making Visual Studio 2010 the default sometime after the first of the year? "Sometime after the first of the year" would be a point-release. For example, Crypto++ 5.7, 5.8, 6.0, etc. I also want to ensure folks actually *have* a version of Visual Studio 2010 or above to use. "All they need to do is download the free copy of the software from the Microsoft website" is a false choice, so please don't fall into the trap. Here are some of the not-so-apparent reasons and barriers: * some folks would violate free Visual Studio licensing terms * some folks may object to free Visual Studio licensing terms * some folks would not be able to endure free Visual Studio technical limitations * some folks may object to the gimmick Microsoft runs and the expiring trial * some folks may not be able to afford to purchase Visual Studio with an authorized license * some folks may not have hardware to run a modern version of Visual Studio (If its OK, I'll toss a migration path proposal out there for comments. I'm with-holding it at the moment so you can form your own opinions). Jeff -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.
