I'd go farther than that. A Windows port itself is not enough. What is needed is a way to somehow shrink-wrap an application with the GNUStep frameworks so that, in the end, the user just has to run an installer and doesn't need to know that GS is the running support for the app.

I don't know how this can be done (or has been planned for) from an architectural point of view.

OTOH, if Apple would somehow revive the Yellow box I'd be happy too. I'd even be happy to pay for it, as long as it allows me to seamlessly port my apps...

Well, I feel a huge interest here in using GNUstep as a porting means.
The problem is, as I already mentionned right in my first posting of the thread you mentionned, that GS needs to complete the Windows port as much as possible. That's actually the only frequent complaint I see. And I do agree with that. I just don't agree with people complaining and not wanting to help with one line of code. And I don't think, that rewriting, debugging and maintaining a whole interface layer themselves, will cost their clients less, than completing gnustep-gui.
