Just a quick update... we are now into the QA phase with this, and there 
is a Project Viewer available on the Alternate Viewers page 
<https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Alternate_Viewers#Second_Life_Project_ToolsUpdate_Channel> 
(there is a known issue with the Windows installer that I believe 
affects anyone that does not have developer tools installed... a fix 
should be out very shortly).

We've also put up a new page of instructions on how to set up a Windows 
development environment 
<https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Visual_Studio_2013_Viewer_Builds>.  
Suggestions for improvement are most welcome here and on the Talk 
page... we're trying to keep it as simple as possible while being 
sufficient to build a clean checkout of the viewer.
