Per #15286, I guess we'll need Windows Nano Server builders at some point.

How? GCE? Azure?

Can Microsoft run them for us? Or give us Azure credit?

Ping, @jstarks. Is this available for purchase yet? Or can we run it on Azure?

Supposedly GCE is working on Nano Server support as well: https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2015/07/Bringing-Windows-to-Google-Cloud-Platform.html

I have a contact at Google who can help me with Windows VM things on GCE now.

We can run Server 2016 VMs on GCE which can run the nano server container.

@johnsonj, any interest in / time for setting up a Server 2016 VM base image for us?

We currently only have 2008, using the following setup instructions: https://github.com/golang/build/tree/master/env/windows

Yeah! But I really want to make a terraform to do the manual steps. I can timebox that this week and if that doesn't pan out build the image by hand by the start of next week.

That would be awesome. Windows is Go's only builder type set up by hand.
