No problem - it is something that I've been meaning to do for a long time
;-)

Thanks - I have just double checked the output and it seems I have it wrong
in both VC10 and VC11 files for all the release builds :(

Mmmm. I thought I did that for a reason but I honestly can't remember for
the life of me why now - I will look at using one of the Visual Studio
macros - $(Platform) or $(PlatformName) instead.

We use CMake at work and it is a great tool - however a) I'm not too sure
everyone wants to install CMake on there system so is there a way we could
generate project files, that include both 32-bit and 64-bit builds as well
as the different configurations (OpenSSL, WinSSL, SSPI, LibSSH2 etc...) from
CMake files during the release process? And b) I don't think our existing
CMake files are complete enough and I know Daniel has mentioned possibly
removing them at some point because of this.

Kind Regards

Steve
