I have resources to test one platform. Though I would like to see 7.1 as
being a supported platform, I can't say it is worthwhile for me to
test it (we are porting
everything to 9.0). But would gladly contribute with testing MSVC 9.0 on x64.
As long as parallel builds work reliably.
I can offer some hours per day of a core 2 quad 2.4GHz with 8GB RAM on
vista x64.
