If you don't want to wait and not big on cygwin, you can get a "proof of
concept" build at 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=9764&release_id=136623

It's not supported by anyone and I can't even say if it will work for
you, but it has worked for some in the past and might be a good way to
get your feet wet. 

Once you get up and running be sure to come back and help us beta test!
