- Working with Qian's team for this.
- Issue is Linux CI builds still use make - Windows is using meson.

   - possibly in time for 19.08
- Also need to bring Windows into community lab for unit testing
   - use Bugzilla to log request to lab to increase scope for Windows
- Draft repo needs a new branch to host latest Windows development
   - currently WIP
- What about rte_panic() removal from Windows EAL?
