Does this work on Windows? I see the TODO item "Get working on OSX", but if this project could bring x-compatibility on the big 3 platforms (thanks Go!), that could really set it apart.

I'm afraid not :/ Windows is a whole new kettle of fish to get working - you need a device driver to emulate TUN/TAP.

That said, I'm using a library called Water for the low-level networking, and that library just added support for Windows. Implementing full windows support only requires you to implement a few network methods (such as helpers_linux.go) - PRs welcome :)
