Uh.. Didn't noticed this... =)

Well I've somewhat working port that works under Cygwin (with or 
without) X Server.

Didn't never got native working since some of dependencies were very 
hard to build (like bonobo.. =)

I would be very interested in sources and system setup. If needed I can 
even provide temporary webspace (I've few GB or so to spare... ) for 
intermediate stuff for interested people.
