Still out here, still interested, haven't started.  I'd guess it's still
possible I might want to take up this project later this year (summer
looks to be relatively slow).  I'm open to suggestions as to approach,
for example do you think it's worthwhile to try to develop a common
API for the user interface and network routines that will allow us to share
most of the client code across UNIX/X and Windows versions or should
we take the client/server communication protocol as a starting point and
develop a client for Windows from scratch using more standard (from a
Windows perspective) programming and user interface techniques?
