No, seriously. I'm vaguely aware that mingw-builds was nominated as the official binary distribution of MinGW-W64, but I grew accustomed to considering the multiple available binaries as "contributed by the community." Ruben's, mingw-builds, TDM... It might be confusing for the newcomer, but it was enriching on its own way. I see that the Downloads section of mingw-w64.sf.net lists quite a few binary distributions (and says nothing about the special status of mingw-builds). I miss MSYS2 there. It provides an updated POSIX environment and lots of packages. Having it around is a good thing for MinGW-W64. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV. Video for Nerds.
