I don't have any specific knowledge of setting deltacloud-core on
Windows. The specific issue you run into is that the installation of
thin requires a C compiler - you might want to try and install the
cygwin tools (gcc, binutiles etc.) and then try to get thin going again.
The web site for thin[1] might have more info
