[Dvdauthor-developer] Windows port without Cygwin

[Tony M. <man...@co...>]

I'm sure the following question has been asked many times before, but I searched the archives and could not find an answer.
 
I want to use dvdauthor on Windows, but disk footprint is an issue. Therefore the Cygwin port is not very attactive to me, because of the overhead of including the necessary Cygwin DLLs (more than 2 megs compressed). So, has anyone ever attempted a straight Windows port using the Win32 SDK? Can anyone comment on what dependencies would make such a port tricky?
 
I am willing to do this port if it seems reasonably feasible.
 
Thanks.
