I seem to remember the same argument at 7.4 time. I don't use Windows, I think it's a bletcherous system, but I really think delaying the Windows port Yet Again will make the project almost completely irrelevant to a significant audience. I completely agree that it'd be a bad idea to slip indefinitely on the basis of "Windows is still not ready," but if it's a matter of changing freeze date by a month, given the long notice, why is that a bad thing? The Windows port is _extremely_ important for a lot of people, and I think it'd be short sighted to ignore that constituency, even if they are mostly not here yet.
