In other news, old c coder has been able to compile a native MSVC++ version of yacoind (https://github.com/yacoin/yacoin/pull/17) and I will merge that to testing (or maybe YAC-MSVC++) once the outstanding issues are resolved. Anyone that is able to test it out, please do so. This (I believe) makes YAC the first coin that can be compiled in MSVC++ since the early days of Bitcoin. I'm not a fan of windows and neither is sairon, but there are a lot of extremely talented people out there (like Ron and Satoshi 
) who are masters on that platform, and I believe it will bring YAC to a whole new group of people.

I promised videos on MSVC++ static library building for bitcoind.exe & YACoind.exe & other *coind.exe --
and here they are:

The Yacoin 043 sources should already contain the MSVC++ additions.
The last video on actually building bitcoind.exe and YACoind.exe using those libraries is almost done, but those practiced in the art probably won't need it
I would be interested in feedback. And I would hope that this allows a stampeding herd of Windows developers to jump in and contribute to the YACoin and other projects.
