+This is the README for the %package_name% binary distribution for
+Windows, version %version%.
+
+* Although CouchDB defaults to installing into your "Program Files" directory,
+ the permissions on the 'var' and 'etc' sub-directories have been adjusted
+ to allow modification by any authorized user so the couchdb databases, logs
+ and .ini files can be written. You may like to further restrict these
+ permissions to only the user who will be running couchdb.
+
+* To start couchdb execute couchdb.bat in the 'bin' directory. A shortcut
+ to this batch file should have been installed. There is currently no
+ support for Windows Services etc, but you are encouraged to look at the
+ various tools which allow arbitrary programs to be run as services.
+
+* The Futon application which comes with CouchDB does not work with
+ Internet Explorer - Mozilla Firefox is generally recommended.
+
+* The test suite is known to fail on Windows due to what appear to be
+ permissions errors; this is due to couch being unable to delete a
+ file while it is in use on Windows.
+ See also https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-326
+
+* Additional help with the Windows support is needed - please contact the
+ couchdb-dev list if you can help.
