Just a lack of time, I've made some attempts to set up a dev environment
on Window's Vista, but ran into some problems getting it set up right.
We've considered making a separate release of the qa tests, this would
assist by checking binary compatibility is maintained, eg method
signatures etc.
Cheers,
Peter.

I'm a little concerned about the implications of my difficulties
running the River jtreg tests in a WindowsXP environment. I seem to be
breaking new ground, but I feel a full test on at least one of the
MS-Windows operating systems should be part of the release process, to
guard against e.g. dependence on a single rooted file system getting
built in to River.
Is there some reason against doing so, or just a lack of resources?
