-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there, ~ I know Scribus and Windows seems to be a dead issue, but I still feel it would be good to have more than just the Cygwin version...
With the new QT porting efforts to Windows (see http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=440993), would it be possible to build Scribus under Windows, using the QT port? I never even tried to build anything under Windows (and don't have access to a Windows machine at home, and at work I'm not really paid to build software...), but maybe someone can say if it would be worth a try. I saw that Kexi (the KDE database project - http://www.kexi-project.org/about.html) has been build for Windows, not using Cygwin. Would one use the Cygwin source of Scribus, or the normal source code (is there any difference anyway)? Maybe someone tried already and can send me their binaries? While I really want to move away from using QuarkXpress at work, I'm a bit hesitant to use Linux only applications. Cygwin + KDE is not really an option, as our equipment is too old and would make working with such a setup a pain. I'm happy myself to use Linux only (and didn't use Windows even once this year yet), but I experienced quite some problems with interns and volunteers (and colleagues) in a Linux environment. For an organisation which depends a lot on volunteers coming in and doing some work, this is quite a challenge, and presently I prefer a dual boot environment, and the use of software which runs under both OS (Mozilla Thunderbird and Firefox, OpenOffice, Gimp, Gaim, Inkscape, etc...). However, such a thing doesn't exist yet, and it would be very very useful if it could be done with Scribus... any ideas?
