The list found so far includes:
Seems CircleCI offers up to 6000 minutes per month (to be explored for MacOS per #1419) including Windows builders:
Getting closer with:
Maybe sometime in the future would get to the likes of:
Initial milestone achieved (we have some way to build and test NUT in Windows). Other goals are worthy nice-to-haves to expand the supported base of options later, so not closing this issue yet but not actively pursuing either.
The "fightwarn" effort started in #823 introduced in particular builds of NUT in Windows workers, currently for the sake of seeing if we can do it at all. This can be seen in branches with "fightwarn" in the name, and possibly truncated in scope (to avoid running other test cases while fixing this scenario) by a temporary patch like these from the https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/commits/fightwarn-win branch:
