[cfe-dev] What are the plans for creating a Windows Binary Release of Clang?

Interesting but it looks like this binary is intended to be integrated with
Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Studio 2012.  Why is that?  Are there any
plans to create a binary release that does not require the user to have any
proprietary software already installed?

For me, I want to move to Clang because I want to start using C++11
features.  I do not want to buy a new version of Visual Studio (I currently
have VS2008) and Clang looks to be better than GCC.
