Porting Snort3 to Windows

[Bob Cook via Snort-devel <snort-devel () lists snort org>]

Hello,

In the Snort3 GitHub there are several issues raised and closed in regards to a port to Windows, but seems this 
activity hasn't yet come into the publicly visible branches.

My company has previously worked with the Snort2 codebase to build and deliver it for the Windows platforms as part of 
our endpoint security product. We intend to perform similar work for Snort3, and would like to collaborate on this 
effort with the Snort3 project team to make our changes available to the wider community.

We have some ideas about how to accomplish it with modifications to the existing Snort3 codebase, and created a 
functional prototype (enough to run basic stuff) to explore different approaches. We will be doing this work ourselves 
anyways, and we'd value the opportunity to share.

Can someone from the Snort3 project leadership reach out to me to discuss how this could work most effectively (or let 
me know this isn't of interest to the project at this time).

Thanks,
Bob Cook
