Compiling LyX for Windows - free MSVC available

[Uwe Stöhr]

I just noticed that MSVC is available for free:

together with this SDK:

it should be possible to generate native Win-code.

From now on there are also localized versions avilable. Here are the 
links for the german version:

Has anybody ever tried to compile LyX with MSVC and perhaps has a 
project file for this?
