Any plans to support Windows?

Hi - Are there any future plans to support Windows platform?

Hi @pankajghosh! Not particularly, although I also don't know what breaks on Windows. I also don't have easy access to a Windows VM. I welcome contributions of such, even if it is just letting me know what needs to be addressed.

I'll leave this issue open to see if there is more interest in support for Windows. My apologies, and thank you!

Hi @econchick - The project makes some implicit assumptions related to absolute/relative paths which error on Windows. This issue manifests itself mainly in JSON references($ref) not working - both absolute and relative.

Good news is that current unit test coverage seems to catch all these issues(they do fail on Windows server) and I can probably submit a fix for this.
If I submit a PR for these fixes, will you accept the changes?

Hey @pankajghosh ! I'm so so sorry I didn't get back to you earlier! I would definitely accept a PR for this!

If you have limited time, then be sure to branch off of the 0.2.0-dev branch (not master) so we can get it into the latest release. If you have a bit more time, then a 2nd PR would be great based off of master (a little confusing, but master is latest release on PyPI).
