Hi all,

I built Boost with Mingw last night, to help the guys with their new additions to Inkscape. Here it is:

http://inkscape.modevia.com/win32libs/boost_1_34_1-mingw411.7z

As you can see, it is enormous (28MB). Do we really need Boost, and is it worth doubling the size of the lib bundle?

I thought 2geom only needed some Boost headers, not the libs; so I have stripped down boost quite a lot on my computer now, and 2geom builds fine.

Unpacked it is about 8 MB, but packed it is 370 kb :) Just a tad too big to send across this maillist :/

Cheers! Johan

P.S. Sorry Bob for double mail :(
