Hello,
  There were some emails a while ago regarding windows support.  I have
had a look at the code and it is likely for the forseeable future it
will remain in PHP, not C. This is mainly around the plugins part
because expanding those would be tricky.

I'm also working a lot on the poller because it is the thing that the
larger sites hammer the most.  Unfortunately while the Unixes have a
lovely wealth of process controls like real threading, Windows does not.
I've chosen to keep with the process forks not threads (just like
poller2 does) so the program still works on Windows.  Hopefully one day
the thread support arrives for php in windows.

You might not realise it, but the poller is actually 2 programs in one.
There is a master program that then forks and runs the child programs.
poller2 had the code for both in one file, this is now split out and
been cleaned up a lot.

If you want to see the new pollers they are in the git repository.  The 
current state of the repository means you probably cannot run everything
yet. The new master is poller3.php while the child is poller_child.php
