Thanks Johan,
I'm going to dig into those threads after some vacation time I have and
then decide what the first start is.
At this point, I think I will split the two efforts: helping with the
windows platform builds (where I can provide value faster .. hopefully) and
then the Synology packaging effort (where I'm just starting).
Last quick question, and forgive me since I don't know anything about open
source development processes, would it be helpful to create and maintain a
Visual Studio project, or do you just want the setup instructions on how to
make that VS project?
