depending on what you need... if you don't use libobjc2, all works quite 
fine on windows.
You can use mingw, but bet is msys2 and a lot of things work just 
natively and easily.
Base and Gui are of good support, I use wind32 backend which works for 
most stuff.

Things compile and work out-of-the box almost like on linux. I updated a 
fortnight ago and updated several apps and those which were supported on 
windows continue to work fine. ProjectCenter, StepSync, DataBasin 
compile. I can provide screenshots.
I will do a new retest the coming days.
