[darcs-users] "Official" binaries

[zooko]

Salvatore:

Thanks!

Could we hook up your Windows machine that you used to build that  
binary to be a builbot?

The cost of that is that occasionally your machine will have to work  
hard for a while to compile a new version of darcs that was just  
committed.

If you really don't want to endure that load, then we could arrange  
it so that it does this only at midnight, or something like that.

Yeah, I spent a few minutes trying to install libcurl and openssl,  
but it looks like it will take another hour or two of hassle, so I am  
procrastinating it.
