Someone already did and made a pull request with a dub.json 
package description:
https://github.com/AndrejMitrovic/WindowsAPI/pull/2 but Andrej 
Mitrovic said that the dsource developers should handle it. I 
don't want to bug people and ask the same question.I don't have 
dub packaging experience , neither a windows operating system to 
begin with but someday I may need to port to windows and still 
use dub as a build system.

Yeah but std.c.windows.windows contains only one import to 
core.sys.windows.windows ( 
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/blob/master/std/c/windows/windows.d 
) so there is not much to contribute on this module.

My last option will be just what you did, clone and publish but 
it won't be in the near future. I was thinking there are more 
WindowsAPI users that want to move to dub build system or maybe 
some dsource developers around here willing to move to github and 
make it faster.Wishful thinking ...
