Well, I've written to MS asking for pointers to their plugin
API.  So far my mail's been forwarded to "Product Support and Services
group".  We'll see what happens.  I wouldn't personally like to get myself
involved in Windows coding, and I doubt any of the team here would either.

Maybe it's worth talking to Real about this now and seeing if they
have a position on it yet?
