I curious here. Where does this "counts" come from? It sounds like set in stone without given reason. If we would have a big developer base bringing in patches for Windows or Mac I could easily understand that but we don't have that. We have a patch here and there but nobody is really looking into that. There might be a big user base for some apps running efl on these platforms but without developers that are interested in it this falls apart quickly. Right now we have the situation where people like me who are totally uninterested in Windows support fix things to get a mingw build working. Which tells me that people that use it with windows either keep their patches private or use really old versions of efl. So having something marked as "counts" which is barely supported by anyone upstream is kind of funny. regards Stefan Schmidt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
