Re: Remove links to Windows builds?

[Alan Mead]

    I agree with Fritz. I think it would cause a lot less heartburn to
    add warnings and a lot more heartburn to remove the links. 
    
    As the Windows version gets more out of sync, I guess the balance
    could shift. I hope this isn't the case for a very long time.

I think it is better to inform the users that windows cannot be build currently and that there are some known issues. So they have to wait. Anyway the released version works for most I guess.

The irony of this ... is that the Internet is
both almost-infinitely expandable, while at the
same time constrained within its own pre-defined
box. And if that makes no sense to you, just
reflect on the existence of Facebook. We have
the vastness of the internet and yet billions
of people decided to spend most of them time
within a horribly designed, fake-news emporium
of a website that sucks every possible piece of
personal information out of you so it can sell it
to others. And they see nothing wrong with that.
