I'm registered as developper on Win32::GUI SoureForge project.
Theoricly, i have CVS access for commit change and tag version (not tested).

Aldo say on this mailing-list (7 april 2003 in Re: [perl-win32-gui-users]
The status of win32::gui)

I'm waiting for new Win32-GUI Aldo's release.
But it's possible to fix some bug/miss on current release.
So I assume, Aldo agree for use sourceforge CVS to do this.

I think it's probably good to :
1) Tag current CVS source as 0.0.558
2) Commit and tag 0.0.665 sources
3) Commit new change over 0.0.665 source code (in a specific branch ?)

I'm not a CVS expert so i need to study how to do this.
If i can do step 1 and 2.
I can merge and apply your (and others) change to CVS.
I'm not here this week-end but can start to study this next week.

I have a PPM repository set on my Web Site.
I can put on it.

I have made some change in 0.0.665 source code for build it for Perl
ActiveState with free MinGW compiler.
I think it's usefull for people want to build/contribute to Win32::GUI
source code without need of Visual C++.

Laurent.
