In my understanding we were still quite far away from solving the python 
on windows issues.

On Linux GRASS7 already works marvelously (although encoding issues in 
the GUI just seem to be multiplying, but that's a discussion for bug 
tickets not here).

Not even to speak about the debate about the general form of GRASS 
("program" to launch or environment) launched by Glynn. But maybe this 
is more for grass8 ?
