[Nut-upsuser] How to setup the NUT client on Windows?

[planet.et at gmail.com]

Hi,

Two weeks and no answer.
Any direction how to setup a NUT client on Windows?
Any kind of documentation anywhere, even a single page?
And if I'm not at the right place, where can I find any help? Any one I
should get in touch with?
There's at least a developer who did this full port to Window?

Thanks for your help!

Emmanuel
