No, Michael. By which I mean, I'm retired. ;-) Less flippantly, I'll be contractually obliged to stop contributing sooner rather than later. In fact, it's about time that you or Uwe took over the generation of the LyX/Win package. It's hardly a large undertaking; all it really needs is a few spare computer cycles. Indeed, the whole build could be run from a single script if the .ico files in development/Win32/packaging/icons were actually compiled into the LyX executable using either * GNU windres: http://www.gnu.org/software/binutils/manual/html_chapter/binutils_12.html * or Microsoft's own Resource Compiler: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/tools/tools/resource_compiler.asp I'd imagine using one of these two to generate an additional .o file that is passed to the linker in order to generate lyx.exe. If you can create a .rc file describing lyx_32x32.ico lyx_doc_32x32.ico and can compile it into a .o file using one of the two compilers above, then I'm sure that Jean-Marc will give you some ideas on how to tweak src/Makefile.am so that this is added to the compilation. If you manage to automate the process of generating the Windows Installer from the contents of the LyX repository, then you might try and persuade Kayvan to extend his compile farm to include a MinGW/MSYS target...
