Hello,

Compilation of KiCad from latest revision under Windows is *not
straightforward* anymore. Because there is a strong need for gdi+ libraries,
this link might be useful:

http://code.google.com/p/wxmax/downloads/detail?name=gdiplus_includes.zip&can=2&q=

This requires to rebuild the wxWidgets 2.9.0 once again this time with
wxGraphicsContext, so there might be a problem with gdi+ stuff with
wxWidgets.

Solution is here:
http://www.miscdebris.net/blog/2009/09/17/adding-gdi-headers-to-mingw-to-compile-wxwidgets-with-wxgraphicscontext-support/

This message is only an informative announcement to anyone interested in
mingw build of KiCad under Windows. Hope it helps. Maybe it should go
somewhere on the wiki left for further generations (until wxWidgets team
drop gdi+).
