+Right now Windows builds using Visual Studio 2012. Technically it should also
+build with other tools, but VS2012 is what your author is using.
+
+Load the ZeroTierOne.sln solution. Typically you won't need to worry about
+any projects other than ZeroTierOne, Service, and InstallerUpdater. SelfTest
+builds the selftest program which can be used to test many aspects of the
+core code base. TapDriver builds the Ethernet tap driver, which shouldn't
+be something end users need to do and requires a driver signing key to create
+a publishable driver that users can load without big red warnings.
+
+To just test ZeroTier One itself, build ZeroTierOne and run the binary in
+an administrator-mode command window.
+
+Instructions for doing a full build will be forthcoming once all the details
+are worked out. Windows is still a work in progress.
