I think we should continue to wait a while and continue doing community building. Meanwhile, one of the following might happen: * Either someone joins and fixes/maintains the Windows build, or * Windows support for *nix compatibility will become much more extensive over time I have a feeling that the second item will happen eventually, based on the trajectory of MS adopting a lot of Linux and open source stuff in general over the last few years.
