Chris,

We've done some limited testing of the new storages on Windows, but
probably not enough.  Not all of the unit tests pass, mostly because
of stupid *nix-isms like unlinking an open file.  Some of those may
just be problems with the testing framework, but I can't say for sure
(they're probably fine, but I want to be able to pass the unit tests
to have as much confidence when I say that ;).

All you should need is of course, Python and Zope (or ZODB) for
Windows, and then install Robin Dunn's PyBSDDB Windows package; it
contains the necessary Berkeley DLL's I believe.

Tim Peters is helping me get a workable Windows development
environment so I suspect we'll do much better on passing the unit
tests for beta 3.  Patches, of course, are welcome! :)

Cheers,
-Barry
