It's our official policy that GNU/Linux support has higher priority
than Windows.  There are two reasons for this:

1. GNU Emacs is part of the GNU system, and working well with the rest
of the GNU system is the highest priority.

2. Windows is non-free software, and therefore gets low priority.  Our
goal is to replace non-free software such as Windows, not to enhance
it.

However, there are some people that want Emacs to work on Windows,
and they support that port.
