I'll try and get my arse in gear on this one, but really I don't think that
this should delay any release. The fact that Windows becomes an officially
supported platform is a much bigger deal IMO.

Before we release the code as 1.3.6, however, I think it would make sense
to have some Windows guinea pigs to try it out and report on any obvious
problems. Maybe a "call for Windows testers" mail to the lyx-users list?

I'll have a go tomorrow.
