#1 - by not dropping mingw bundled .exe installs we would avoid this completely.

'Major' releases still have mingw installs.

Well, the svn commit strategy and patch pushing isn't that easy, but that's understandable, as u++ is owned by core devs, not community,

Uhm, almost any open-source project limits write access to svn. The only difference here is that we have fine-grained approach (more levels of access) and that the number of core developers is low.

That said, we can even improve. E.g. I am considering that theide related packages are more open, if anybody would request access there. Hars restriction is only needed for packages that are included in apps developed.
