You are right, stupid question.
Ok, so what we will have to do (I know we talked about this when doing
the debian packages, but this release should be general for GNU/Linux.

- pd-externals
  (all externals that do not depend on additional libraries
  except libc and libm)

compiled for:
  * Linux
  * OSX
  * Windows

- flext
- flext-externals
compiled for:
  * Linux gcc2
  * Linux gcc3 (Do we need both versions ??)
  * OSX
  * Windows

Then there are some externals left that depend on libraries (like the
ogg things). Should we compile them statically ?

What else ?

Ah, yes, ask everyone if it is ok to release the code as it is now.

Document installation (or add installer scripts ?)
Should we release .rpm and .debs directly ?

Well, and above all fix the Windows compilation. I might be able to
do that on Monday.

Greetings,

Guenter
