[hobbit] Windows Client

[Brodie, Kent]

Does anyone know if there's going to be a gui wrapper around the config of this?    I am reasonably impressed by the window client's abilities (just fired it up on one of my windows nodes), but I can tell that the windows sysadmins here will be a bit put off by having to manually make registry entries, and manually edit the xml config file.   (It's one thing for us unix-dudes(or dudettes) to edit hobbit config items, but I know the windows guys like the gui way.    The (older, yet still mostly functional) BBNT client is quite easy to install, configure, and run.    I'm hoping that's what we ultimately end up with for the hobbit windows client!
