The effort could be quite high, you're right. And i don't think it is right
thing to do to port every free software project on the planet to the MS

a other unix system. :-)
If anybody want to pay a developer for this, then it is another question. But
it is also my opionion that this work should not be done from the core
development team.

Just throwing
wild ideas ... but if we moved to autotools (we need to
look for a guru ... I agree, more than autotools is auto-chaos) we
could easily cross-compile ...
And that said, it just comes to mind the chance of cross-compiling
with mingw and have a windows openser, just for the non-linux user and
expand our borders. It may be a cut down version to start with, but
wouldn't it be great?
No. Posix based software was in general never intended to run on
Windows. More often than not the additional effort isn't worth it and
another thing to pull away from core development.
