I think that having an official Windows binary package is essential 
because there is no package manager for Windows.  An OS X binary package 
would be nice, but I don't see it as essential.  There are package 
managers for OS X and it seems to be harder to build a binary package 
for OS X.  But if it is possible to do, then OK.

Building for Windows works.  Help with an installer for Windows is needed.
