Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo4W maintenance activities
I'm a MS Windows User at work. I'm not a C programmer, but I know enough to compile some code. I can help with compiling and testing on Windows 64 Bit.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo4W maintenance activities
Hello Anita, I think osgeo4w needs a better structuring of how packages can be added or updated based on different compilers and version. Currently, due to ABI incompatibility upgrades are stuck. For instance ossim. This was discussed in https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/473#comment:7 IMHO, it should become a package management tool for Windows rather than a package installer.
