New build of the trunk for MS Windows

FWIW, I've uploaded a new build of the trunk (revno 110553) for MS Windows.

Thanks. It would be great it someone would do for MS Windows what these
guys (and probably others) do for other platforms:

http://emacsformacosx.com/
http://emacs.naquadah.org/

which is just make builds on a regular basis and stick them on a website
somewhere. No need to let the development list know every time.

Yes, I don't like to post these notices to this list, because I guess
many people are not interested in them.

So from now on, I'll upload my builds to my shared Dropbox folder [1],
but I wont send any notice to this list.

Someone used to do that, IIRC (uploaded to alpha.gnu.org).

Yes, Sean Sieger used to do it and maybe someone else.  I'd really 
prefer these mailing list announcements to Dropbox.

Sean Sieger did it.  But he also notified emacs-devel and help-emacs-windows.

I think the notifications are important, especially if the updates are not
regular.

It is most important to notify help-emacs-windows@gnu.org, IMO.  That would be
enough, I think, if you are worried about Emacs Dev being annoyed by the
announcements.  These are announcements for Emacs users, not just for
developers.

Ccing help-emacs-windows@gnu.org.  (You should not drop that list from the cc
list if you are discussing a proposal to stop sending such messages.)

Sean has not uploaded builds in a long time.

There are some issues with my automated build server and right now I am 
not able to build on a regular basis. The server is running on my home 
machine, which has issues.

Generally, I think it would be nice if we had a server that was not tied 
to someone's personal machine and could be maintained by multiple 
people. Is there a CI server we can use to build and package the weekly 
binaries?

There is a CI server for Emacs running here:
http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/emacs-trunk. It does cygwin builds.
I don't know if that's exactly what's needed or not, but I hope it
helps.

That server is also building the emacs-24 branch, and some other GNU projects.

How's it going with your machine problems, Christoph? Hope they are 
sorted out to your advantage soon! I wholeheartedly agree with Drew 
Adams (you snipped that part in your reply) that these notifications to 
the mailing list are very important for the community and I personally I 
would be sad to see them stop. Also, I would like to convey my sincere 
appreciation for doing these builds.

That sounds great, hope it can be arranged!

I don't care about help-emacs-windows, but this really has nothing to
do with emacs-devel, so I wish I could stop reading about it there at
least.
