On re-reading my post it sounds like I was blaming you for a
complaint, that was most definitely not my intention!  In the past
I've sometimes made snarky comments against windows and I was just
trying to convey that we'd *love* to have better windows support, we
just lack the manpower and know-how of Windows-specifics to do the job
we'd like to do.

Even if you can't contribute code initially, the help of a dedicated
user willing to test things out and give feedback is enormously
valuable, so we greatly appreciate it.

Cheers,
