Good.

Well, the problem isn't the compilation of C++ itself, but the build system uses
few sed scripts to generate some files, there are some OS dependant calls from
place to place (I know of few fork() calls in some tests), and some stuff nobody
knows about now, because it simply isn't run under windows.

Yes, we have a ticket for each task, to talk about reviews and such, I believe
you should be able to open it yourself (if not, it's a misconfiguration, anyone
should be able to create one). With a branch, I guess you don't have an account
on the bind10 machine (I don't remember seeing you on the team). So, you can
just put a git repo with your branch somewhere we could pull from for now? (Do
you know how?)

Anyway, we try to split into as small tasks as possible, so the branches don't
diverge too much from master, it's easier to review and there are less
conflicts. The procedures are that at the end, the ticket is put into review and
someone looks at the branch, but whatever works for you to get to that point has
quite no guidelines.

With regards
