dbus-daemon and library is usable for the KDE on windows distribution.

There are still issues with the the test suite. A few has been already 
fixed, the other need to be fixed.

Known Issues:
1. bus-test unix related test config files need to be excluded, made 
cross plattform or need to be duplicated for windows

Testing valid files:
....
    many-rules.conf
Unknown username "root" on element <deny>
Unknown group "root" on element <deny>
Unknown username "root" on element <deny>
Unknown group "root" on element <deny>
...
    system.conf
Unknown username "root" in message bus configuration file


2 there is sometime a communication problem between client and server, 
which are in the same application

-------------------------------------------------------
bin\bus-test: Running SHA1 connection test
Did not receive a message on 002CD6C0, expecting NameOwnerChanged
File 
"G:\Daten\kde\download\svn-src\dbus-freedesktop-src-ssh\bus\dispatch.c" 
line 701 process 3536 should not have been reached: didn't get the 
expected NameOwnerChanged (deletion)
 messages
-------------------------------------------------------

when running bus-test with

set DBUS_VERBOSE=1
bin\bus-test 2> error.log

the problem does not occur.

-------------------------------------------------------
bin\bus-test: Running SHA1 connection test
bin\bus-test: checking for memleaks
-------------------------------------------------------
It looks that there is a timing problem between server and client.

3. message dispatch problems

-------------------------------------------------------
bin\bus-test: Running message dispatch test
-> a message windows pops up displaying a message that  test-service.exe 
could not be correctly initiated (0xc01500004)

the verbose log contains:

3944: [dbus\dbus-connection.c(4272):dbus_connection_get_dispatch_status] 
UNLOCK
Did not get the expected org.freedesktop.DBus.TestSuiteEchoService from 
ListNames
File 
"G:\Daten\kde\download\svn-src\dbus-freedesktop-src-ssh\bus\dispatch.c" 
line 4564 process 3944 should not have been reached: ListActivatableNames
 message failed
----------------------------------------

that's all for now.

Regards
 Ralf
