 This is fixed in the subversion head.
 
-== Cygwin ==
+== Windows ==
 
-Your mileage under cygwin may vary :-(
-Please use the svn head, especially if you want the java bindings under cygwin.
-(Dont forget bootstrap, when building from the svn repository).
-Currently we've been able to compile a static version of rave only with
-a static version of clhep (compiled under cygwin, as well).
-
+Windows dlls do not yet work, mainly because the clhep needed to be patched, and this
+patch is not yet "public".
+But as soon as it is, Rave "native" windows dlls can be compiled both under cygwin,
+(using the mingw compiler), as well as using the cross-mingw compiler for e.g. Linux.
+Because windows is such a peculiar platform, one has to do "make dlls" _after_ having done
+"make". Apart from this, everything else should be the same.
 Install the following packages (incomplete list): boost, boost-devel, gcc-g++, gcc-java, gcc-mingw-java, pkg-config, swig, automake
-
-This should be achievable without special tweaking and special configuration settings, though.
-The usual ''configure; make'' should do the job.
-
-Using clhep libraries compiled with VC++ (the official way to build clhep under windows) 
-has not yet been tried.
-
-Our expertise in this area is likely to rise in the near future.
-
-We might contribute patches to clhep2 to be able to build shared clhep2 libraries under cygwin.
