[Buildbot-devel] reconfig on Windows

[Sergey A. Lipnevich]

Ben,

Apparently, it's also a Windows problem: it doesn't support signals such
as SIGHUP and os.kill is not available on Win32. Thank you!
I don't know what's the best approach to warn the users about it is, so
I filed http://buildbot.net/trac/ticket/105.
Cheers,

Sergey.
