> The documentation [1] states: "Flink runs on all UNIX-like environments:
> Linux, Mac OS X, Cygwin. The only requirement is to have a working Java 6.x
> (or higher) installation."
> I just found out Flink runs also natively on Windows. Do we want to support
> Windows? If so, we should update the documentation. Clearly, we don't support
> it at the moment for development. At multiple places, the tests contain
> references to "/tmp" or "/dev/random/" which are not Windows compatible.
> Probably it's enough to update the documentation stating that Flink runs on
> Windows but cannot be build or developed on Windows without Cygwin.
