Yeah...getting dbus to work on Windows will be hard. Maybe we should
consider using some other ways to display a notification on Windows.

E.g. On Windows/Cygwin environment, org-notify should use a command line
tool to show a notification in the Windows notification area.

But I wonder how to deploy this command line tool with Emacs system...any
suggestions/ideas?


Thanks,
David
