I think it's much more important to have a Windows build machine than it is to have an remote machine devs can use as as a test bed.
Olaf's Windows build slaves are currently being integrated into our BuildBot. As stated, I could also donate and set up a Windows XP license to be used as another Buildslave if there is a need.
I can't see how can you be a ros/nt dev without access to at least one NT5 box.
Change NT5 to NT5.2 and the list should become quite short.
As long as no one proposes a major change, we are still heading for NT5.2 compatibility (at least kernel-wise). And then we have to verify that all our API implementations are not just compatible to some NT5 version but 100% compatible to NT5.2.
Encountering an NT5.2-incompatible API can be as easy as testing screensavers (see r28953/r28955). Tell me how to avoid such mistakes in the future if we don't consequently test against NT5.2.
