Hi all, Partha has done some more work, and now we can build an almost fully functional Inkscape (only aspell is not included), for 64bit Windows. This version is *A TON* faster than our regular 32bit build. I suspect this is because of newer library versions (dragging the canvas is horribly slow for our regular version).
Thank you very much Partha!
regards, Johan

Hi all, With Partha's and Liam's help, we seem to be able to build for 64-bit Windows now. Some dependencies are missing, but it is a good start.
For more details, please see http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_Inkscape_on_Windows_64-bit
All help is appreciated! (I do not know about the consequences for release. It'd be nice if we can release with a w64 version too, but I do not know about potential bugs with newer dependency versions. If anything, dragging the canvas seems quite a bit faster on my machine with the 64bit version)
cheers, Johan
