Are there plans to make a Windows Server compatible version of this add-on? If so, what's the timeframe?

This TA relies on NFDUMP tools to capture, and translate NetFlow off the wire, from binary data into flat files for indexing into Splunk. NFDUMP tools are only available for *nix systems at this time and I don't see them being ported to Windows anytime soon. This is out of the control of Splunk, but I would point you to NetFlow for Splunk powered by NetFlow Integrator. NetFlow Integrator is compatible with Windows, although I've never used it on a Windows box. A link to NFDUMP tools should you consider spinning up a *nix box.

Hope this helps.
