Hi, would anyone be willing to port the following extension to Windows:
http://www.xarg.org/project/php-facedetect/

I have the .dll file to be loaded as the extension of version 1.0.1 which detects a face per photo whereas the latest version available on github, 1.1 makes detection of multiple faces.

It's a PHP extension: there's nothing to port. Compile it under Windows (like with Cygwin or MinGW) and you'll have your extension DLL. Most of the work comes from OpenCV but there are Windows builds of that already.

While you're doing that, how about contributing to the community? Maintain a Windows build on GitHub. You could probably script the whole compilation process.
