Subject: Extract a Windows section in the release notes. Hopefully this is more

Extract a Windows section in the release notes. Hopefully this is more
accurate than my original notes were based on IRC conversations. Windows
folks, please edit as needed to make this closer to the truth if I've
still got it wrong.
