Holger,

I have started setting up a build system for Qt/X11 3.1 for mingw/cygwin in Windows (I couldn't
get your stuff to build).  Basically, I created a new mkspec/QMake.conf for mingw/m-no-cygwin.  I
would be happy to send you what I've done (it tries to build qmake and get's as far as
qdir_win.cpp and qfile_win.cpp (these *_win.cpp files are just copied from the *_unix.cpp
counterparts).  Once these files are ported I think qmake can be built as a native tool on windows
and we can use that for the rest.  This should work for either mingw or -m-no-cygwin and hopefully
could be rolled into KDE's qt-copy when it is ready.  I don't think either of these files would be
hard to port for someone knowledgable with Windows API.  Since Qt3.1 is the latest and greatest
perhaps that is the best target.  A nice build system that would compile something would help to
let people play with what you have so far :)

Cheers,
Adam
