-------------------------+-------------------
 The [tag:windows windows] tag documents a number of bugs about starting
 and killing processes on Windows.  Buildbot uses Twisted's process-
 handling code, so these bugs may be fixed by either re-implementing better
 support directly in Buildbot, or by patching Twisted's process-handling
 code.

 == Scope ==
 To do well with this project, you would need to bring a lot of the Windows
 experience that is lacking in the Buildbot development community.
 Assuming you're familiar with Windows APIs and accessing them from Python,
 this bug would entail
  * writing test cases to reproduce bugs users have seen
  * interacting with the Twisted community to design solutions that can be
 merged upstream
  * implementing portable fixes to those bugs
  * documenting them
