Re: cosgin & apache on windows

[kevin mcgowan <clunis@xxxxxxxxx>]

we've had a few people ask about building cosign on Windows, but I  
don't believe anyone has ever successfully done it.  Perhaps Cygwin  
would make it more manageable?

One issue will certainly be mod_cosign's direct manipulation of  
filesystem objects (e.g. for the local session cache).  The libsnet  
code has already been ported (by Jarod Malestein) to Windows so that  
shouldn't be a big problem.
