Hi Jason, Narcis: If anyone would like to work on a Windows version of IceCat, then by all means go ahead. There's no problem providing a Windows version of IceCat. However, it is not currently the priority (and there is a long list of it.) So if anyone wants to step up and volunteer for a Windows version, it would be helpful!
