As for the operating system: I don't think it matters at all. Windows XP Home is as fine a platform for this application as Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise. What would matter is processor architecture - we don't have an Itanium Windows buildbot slave

Microsoft has said it would stop doing Windows releases for Itanium: http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2010/04/microsoft-its-the-end-of-the-line-for-itanium-support.ars

I'm not sure there's any point in caring about it anymore.

Antoine.
