What do you mean by 'porting'? Slash is a software that runs on MySql,
Apache, mod_perl, Perl. None of this building blocks can really be
changed, but all of them are available for a Windows environment.

So, it's first a system issue, having a running mod_perl on Apache on
Windows (which I tried a couple of years ago and it was not easy at all)
and all Perl packages in place. Then I believe you should check which
areas of the code are Unix-specific. I don't understand which changes
needs to be done to the database.

If you don't want Slash, but something-that-looks-like-Slash there are
other softwares that are more easily installable, for example PHP-based,
since they connect less with the underlining system.
