I wouldn't mind that either - in that case I would not need to update my
Windows build box right now :-)

Btw, I've already found out that without updated setup instructions for the
wsdg it would probably take me way too much time to do the upgrade from 2010
to 2013.

Yep I misread Pascal's email.  VS2010 will still be supported. 

I'll try to post some new instructions here tonight.  Pretty trivial really.
