The current build process is simple enough, and you need it to use libzmq on Windows anyhow (to build your own code) that it seems sane to take from master, build and use. Same as we do on Linux and OS/X.
There is afaik also an Appveyor CI happening which produces binaries that could be pushed somewhere. Not my area... When we want to use libzmq from other languages (Python, NodeJS, etc.) it IMO makes sense to want pre-built binaries.
