Re: Cfengine sources

[Christian Pearce]

Huh.  I never new that list existed.  It took me a little while to file this 
list.  BTW:  Savannah is going away for GNU.  They are going with gforge.  But 
you might already be aware of that.

Has anyone given serious thought to getting cfengine to compile natively on 
windows?
