    I wish to work on windbus. I don't have any significant C experience. And I
am completely confused at this point on how to build dbus on windows.I am
currently going through the mailing list archive, dbus git and windbus svn.
Iguess I would have to combine the patches above with the patch submitted by
Olivier.
    Now that it is painless to setup git on windows[1]; can we maintain windbus
as a branch in main dbus git repository? It would do away with all the
patchfiles & make it simple to keep in sync with trunk.
