Donations to NumFOCUS would be helpful in raising money to fund the creation of 64-bit installers. It always comes down to funding, but mostly people's time is the scarce resource here.
It is more difficult to build 64-bit binaries on Windows which is the real issue (not the availability of 64-bit Windows machines -- although the right person having access to those machines can be a problem). NumFOCUS would gladly donate long-running EC2 instances running Windows 64-bit windows if there are people who just need access to a machine. -Travis On Aug 16, 2012, at 10:51 PM, Sayth Renshaw wrote: > Hi > > I was just wondering if the current absence of 64bit builds was as a result > of an infrastructure or funding concern. > > I like many now have only 64 bit systems and am using the unofficial builds. > > If it was something we could raise funds to resolve, how much?
