WE ARE NOT GOING TO DROP SUPPORT FOR ANY PLATFORM WE SUPPORT NOW!!!!!!

Why would you think that Telepathy not being supported on Windows would 
make any of us drop Windows support? While reading the mails about 
multi-platform support, I just realized that we checked multi-platform 
support for everything but Telepathy, so I asked Roelof to check, and 
he reported here that Telepathy will be a problem for Windows. So now 
we've got a problem, and we need to solve that.

Solutions are:
- Find a way to get D-BUS/Telepathy to work on Windows
- Forget about Telepathy.
