+  4. WARNING: Notes on compilation on MS-Windows
+     As the time being (circa dec 2014), I've been using MSVC-2013
+     (compiler version 12). As expected, weird behavior is related to
+     this config. Please take into account the following in order to
+     have a successful compilation:
+     4.1 If you want to build the Qt-based code, please be sure that
+         it was compiled with EXACTLY the same compiler you are using.
+     4.2 Since the dll load-unload procedure in MSWin is kind of magic,
+         VTK should be compiled as shared libraries and ITK should be
+         compiled as static libraries. This allows a correct
+         execution of the SmartPointer's thus preventing anoying crashes.
+     4.3 If you found more problems in any MSWin config, please let us know at
+         florez-l@javeriana.edu.co
