I cross-build completely statically linked Qt quick apps on Linux using mingw-w64 and share them (.exe only, no DLLs) to colleagues who only run windows. Very useful! So I would not vote for requiring MSYS2 or similar if it would mean the end of cross building Windows apps on Linux (if I've understood what MSYS2 is correctly). I would not however mind upgrading the compiler/toolchain if my particular one was too old for some future Qt version. Cheers, Ola
