Great!
I was just a bit afraid since the "old" build went a bit out of fashion ;-)
Just great that there is a new one!
Thanks a lot, lg Clemens
>Hi People,
>>I've put out a new MinGW 4.0 gcc/gcj build:

>>This has integrated SwingWT 0.86.1 and SWT 3116.

>>Issues:
>>- I haven't done DLL builds for this because I
