Well, I never used it so I can't tell...
However the point of releasing some kind of tarball of user contributed
code would be to have something the linux distributions can make packages
of easily and that might get included into the windows installer like
it is now done for wxmaxima.
Of course it depends on somebody willing to do the actual work.
