Since perl5.git.perl.org, which is where cherrymaint is hosted, is not
running Windows, that seems like a spurious objection ;-).

You have to put something like the following in your ssh config and
have an ssh connection open.

Host camel
        HostName perl5.git.perl.org
        LocalForward 3000 localhost:3000

I haven't tried it in a long time so I'm not sure it's still running.
It's also by definition something only committers can see, and there
has definitely been interest in getting more folks involved to the
extent possible.
