After a long time away from it, I’m returning once again to my Mixminion Message Sender program. The first thing I’m going to be doing is creating a new distribution package that will include a default install of mixminion so that the whole thing will be a lot more ready to use right ‘out of the box’.
The next part of the project is a bit more ambitious. I’m going to *try* to get Mixminion-0.0.8alpha3 built for win32 so that Windows users can once again be on track with the developers.
So far, after a few trial runs today I can see that it’s going to be a challenge. Especially since the original was apparently built with Visual Studio 6’s C compiler. I’m going to be trying to get this accomplished within the cygwin mingw environment instead because I personally would prefer it to be built with free tools if at all possible.
