Thanks for the link Guru.

I looked at the list. They have WDK that goes with Server 2008, but not Server 2012. So, we won’t be able to build the OVS datapath.

I found this link where someone has requested WDK 8.1 support:
http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/suggestions/553-request-wdk-81-update

I’ll also voice my support for the request. It might help.

Do we build Linux datapath today in the public cloud (not appveyor)?
