Binaries for Windows available?

[Nicolas Fella]

Hi,

what's not to get is the problem you are trying to solve. If you said 
"no DBus, because Windows" from the beginning it would have been more 
clear. However, using DBus is a non-issue on LXQt and other Linux 
desktops. The current daemon architecture is actually beneficial for 
non-Plasma desktops. The idea is to have a desktop-agnostic daemon that 
various UI components (Plasma applets, applications, kdeconnect-cli, 
aforementioned indicators) can use.

You are right, using DBus makes it hard to run on Windows. I guess if 
somebody was motivated to maintain a Windows port one could link the 
daemon directly to the UI instead of using DBus, but I don't care enough 
about Windows to do it myself. That does not mean I will block anyone 
from doing it. But again, I don't see what problem this would solve for 
LXQt.

Cheers

Nicolas
