Hi,

I was dismissed by the AppVeyor about an image preinstalled with EWDK request. 
They explained I can use their build cache to maintain a local EWDK copy.
Unfortunately, the build cache is account-specific, meaning every user trying 
to run its own fork (including OpenVPN for upstream) will require AppVeyor 
Premium plan. EWDK won't fit into 1GB build cache limit with Free/Basic plan.

So, we still have Jon's alternative proposal to support EWDK *and* VS2015+WDK 
building in buildtap.py.
The downside to this approach is, we are using slightly different build 
environment for CI.
 
Best regards,
Simon
