I've received this message from an interested party:

I am a chinese perl lover and I love this open guides and want to have a test on my computer. But can't install. My system is windows xp, and does it can't be installed on this system? If can, would you please tell me some tips for installation?

Issues of using a Windows XP box for web hosting aside, is running OG on Windows a realistic possibility? I know there are things like ActivePerl, but I'm not familiar with them at all.

Search::InvertedIndex is going to be the problem. Fails tests on Win32 big time!

I did have a go at putting OG and CGI::Wiki::Kwiki up on my Win98 box, but gave up when finding it couldn't handle S::II
