Well, could you at leash kick the windows flasher team to make advanced 
  flasher like the linux or macos one? Thank you. See also

It would help people with windows based machines using colinux or qemu 
for development. While I have both kernel and initfs flasher running on 
device now I'm still missing functionality like
- load kernel to ram
- set various flags

Or better really release the protocol or flasher source with 
coldflashing code removed. 'lack of interest to reveal the protocol' 
seems like no showstopper. Or is it?

Thanks.
