**Q:** Why does compilation or test run fail on MinGW, Cygwin, [your platform of choice here]?
**A:** Because we have limited manpower and resources and can't keep up with every minute detail of every platform. Core team makes sure reasonably recent versions of **Visual Studio**, **clang** and **gcc** build/tests pass on Windows, OSX and Linux; the rest is left to the contributors and other parties with interest in particular platforms. As its name says, POCO is very portable and typically it is a minor code fix or ifdef that is needed to iron a wrinkle out; please consider changing it yourself and send us pull request - that will make everyone happy. If you are inclined to do so, please consider "owning" a platform or build system. It is not much of a commitment - you will be expected to (**a**) keep things tidy (i.e building cleanly with tests passing) in regards to your area and (**b**) respond to user's inquiries thereof.
