[geomoose-psc] RFC-7

[James Klassen]

Supporting Windows for the toolchain is important (I bet people never
thought I'd write that) because many organizations are effectively stuck on
Windows. Forcing them to build in an unfamiliar Linux VM effectively means
they wouldn't be able to build and would be unnecessarily limited in their
ability to participate in the GeoMoose community.

We want to encourage people to contribute fixes, enhancements, tests,
documentation, and build a shared knowledge through experimentation with
GeoMoose.  We want to make it easy to transition from just downloading and
configuring it to making a few simple code changes and fixes to working
fully in git.

This is now feasible given the work the nodejs people and git people have
done to port the tools to Windows.  This includes a more or less usable
bash shell and common commands. So there is no longer a technical necessity
not support building on Windows.
