KK,
You're awesome! I have two Windows build servers I try to keep up to
date, but I've had so much trouble compiling with VS2013 that I haven't
even tried to set up some way to package builds automatically.
Maybe we can work together to figure out how to get this working
automatically, and maybe MinGW is a better (or easier) solution than
VS2013. When I find some time (hopefully soon) I will start trying to
set up the Windows build servers with MinGW.
Given the posts on this list, I think there is definitely interest in
precompiled mlpack for Windows. :)
