Several of the developers are usually idling in the background and you should be able to get some direction. SWP (Stephen Willie Padnos) is usually one to chime and and lead the new folk.

Almost everything is possible, but making EMC2 work with windows would be impossible without help from Microsoft.

EMC2 relies on a realtime-patched kernel. You can't patch Windows because Microsoft don't release the source.

Even if you decided you didn't actually want to control machine tools, compiling the Simulator mode of EMC2 would need a huge amount of work, as it relies on many Linux kernel calls. You would need to find the Windows equivalents, and then modify the code to call them.

This is a rather long-winded way to say "No, it is not possible"
