hm, ok. I thought freeze was jul 1. which would have put release in late summer (or fall)...oh well.
I was kind of amused by the bit about "officially supported as of 8.2", too. That doesn't have anything to do with any reality I know of.
By that I meant Mangus's msvc patch would be accepted into core sources for 8.2. What I was trying to indicate was that there is a decent chance of being able to build via msvc in 8.2...I expect (hope) that this will happen...sorry to sound presumptious though. Merlin
