Additional Qpid C++ on Windows content

Hi all,

Windows is a newly supported C++ platform in M4 and we are beginning
to see some early adopters having difficulty.

May I suggest a Windows area on qpid.apache.org with:

  - more elaborate install and run doc
  - clear info on differences compared to the Linux implementation
       i.e. X has been ported in M4, Y will be in the future
  - this (growing) list of tests/samples is known to work
  - binaries, 32 and 64 bit
  - possibly previewing an M5-style installer
  - backported M5 bug fixes for Windows (like QPID-1550 when available)
  - a few more Visual Studio build scripts for samples or tests

Let me know if this would be useful.

I would propose to do the lion's share on this with some Jiras and
associated patches.  Also, some of this can be staged or mirrored at a
Microsoft public location if that's helpful or more appropriate.

Cliff

I will happily post this content - could you please make me responsible 
when you post the JIRAs so I don't miss any of your content requests?

Thanks very much for proposing this/offering to contribute on it.
