There is a discussion on bui...@a.o about setting up a Windows build machine as part of the ASF infrastructure.
Looks like there is a good possibility provided there are enough people to help administer it for everyone. Not sure what the criteria are (committer?) but I think it would be useful for Harmony to have public Windows builds on Hudson too, so please consider helping.
