Incidentally, I'm not intentionally ignoring your questions, Jolly. I'm just 
not a Windows user, don't even have access to a Windows machine to test with, 
and thus have no idea what to tell you. But I know that others have made it 
work on Windows (including commercial products and other open source projects), 
so it's certainly possible.

If anybody is able to generate a definitive set of instructions for how to do 
it painlessly, I'm happy to post those on our Wiki (or give you write access to 
the wiki).
