Hi Kevin, all, There are two small-ish barriers to meld on windows.
* in the glade files GnomeProgram, GnomeFileEntry, GnomeFileChooser need to be ripped out and replaced with the appropriate new gtk versions. * gconf and gnomevfs stubs need to be written - meld uses only a tiny portion of each API All it needs is somebody motivated and a few hours!
