I will assume they are not going to port live-build, archiso, buildiso
or b2im.  These tools are about building custom .iso images that you can
build your own bootable thumb drives with.  THAT IS DIGITAL FREEDOM.
Will these be built to create win64-based iso images with windows 10
included?  Let me know when this happens. WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER.


Did you notice x-window, wayland, gtk availability on top of win64?
Essentially anything Linux GUI, is that running without flaws, I'll bet
there are deliberately missing pieces in the Linux gui capabilities on
the win64 platform to deliberately encourage some of the brainshare to
increase their gui efforts/dependency on win64 api calls polluting the
open-source code base and possibly forcing developers to pay for those
extra missing gui pieces. THAT'S THE HOOK.
I wouldn't touch this stuff because the behaviour is not exactly the
same because it is running on top of the win64 kernel after all.
I wouldn't touch anything to do with Microsoft api's because it leads
you to a path of contraints/restrictions and vendor lock-in and some
kind of Microsoft TAXES ultimately.

GNU/WIN64 is not the GNU/Linux you are looking for.  GNU/Linux with all
its DIGITAL FREEDOMS preserved intact as ArchLinux/Debian/Fedora/Suse
are what you are looking for.
