404 not found error
It's not easy as neither projects would build on
Windows without patching
many files,
That seems very odd, as Windows is an officially supported platform for
Ardour now, and in fact the nightly builds now build for Ardour every day.
I would think it very unlikely that Ardour would need "many files"
patched to get it to build on Windows, as a broken nightly build would be
noticed very quickly (certainly within 24 hours).
Have you been in contact with the Ardour developers to determine why there
is a disconnect between your experience and the other Ardour on Windows
developers?
And just a philosophical question, why would you announce information
about Windows builds on the Linux Audio mailing list instead of the Ardour
Users mailing list? The latter users you know are already interested in
Ardour, the former users you (should) know are (most likely) not
interested in Windows.
