The README is indeed a little outdated: I no longer build Workrave on Windows 
using MinGW (and never did really...); The Windows version of Workrave is 
cross-compiled on Linux.

Furthermore, Workrave can also be compiled (and debugged!) using Visual Studio 
(also Express Edition). See README in build/cmake. (Only networking is 
currently not easy to build on Windows; mail me if you need this)

Groetjes,
