I'd definately recommend binaries for download as suggested by lvqcl and Janne Hyv?rinen. All the fabolous work on the code base is of little use to me if I can not find binaries at the official site.

There have been some offers to help building for various platforms: http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac-dev/2013-July/004271.html and there was discussion last year to create official ?blessed builds?, compiled by Xiph for security reasons. http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/flac-dev/2013-July/004274.html However, this sounds like something that can be sorted out after the release of the source tarball, no?

Fortunately, if someone from Xiph wants to take up the call, it is straightforward to set up both i686 and x86_64 flavors of MinGW-w64. 32-bit target: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.9.2/threads-posix/dwarf/ 64-bit target: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win64/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.9.2/threads-posix/seh/ One extracted, it's just a matter of temporarily adding the relevant bin folder to PATH. When libogg is built, it will also be necessary to manually move its headers and libs into the include and lib folders.
