I have raised those issues, My point is  until such time as core is free of these issues, and is stable for a long enough period to establish that it is mature enough to be the sole product, which right now I never suggest core to a new user, means that compat, a tested fairly easy to use and stable platform should not be abandoned.<br>

    OMG... such issues must be discussed and resolved, no matter if
    compat is to be deprecated or not.<br>

                                            <div>To me, the actual
                                              functionality of core is
                                              zero. I have tried to
                                              install it three or four
                                              times, and failed every
                                              time. Just to check again,
                                              I did another attempt.
                                              First, trying to download
                                              and run compat:<br>
                                              <br>
                                            </div>
                                            download compat<br>

                                        answer a number of questions
                                        that auto-create a
                                        user-config.py<br>

                                    Now core:<br>

                          ok, we&#39;re running window, so &#39;setup.py
                          install&#39; instead<br>

                      ** error: Setup script exited with error: Unable

                    Check the internet (Stack Overflow) and see that it
                    means that the setup program assumes that Visual
                    Studio is installed<br>
                  </div>
                  Check the internet for a download for Visual Studio<br>
