+For the time being, development is done in both the Windows
+(IStream/IStorage) and portable (libgsf) versions. This is because the
+test coverage is slightly worse in the libgsf version---some tests fail
+only in that version.
+
+The pre-gsf branch is developed with the mingw cross-compiler and wine.
+The master branch, which uses libgsf, is developed both with mingw+wine
+(though some tests fail) and native tools.
