Hi,

I won't try to get this working, my only goal with the Windows effort
is to be able to run Kate and Okteta on Windows so I can use them at
work.
This seems to be more about platform integration which I'm not
interested in. Hopefully someone from the kde-windows team can pick
this up.
Developing on Windows is such a pain, I don't want to spend more time
than necessary there.
Once I have managed to get all frameworks (except kdesupport, since
that has so many compile errors that I won't even try) to compile and
pass the tests I will be back to Linux-only work. I will still run the
tests every few days/weeks to make sure no regressions are introduced,
but I don't feel like doing any more Windows work.

Regards
Alex
