True, of course. Sorry for not getting this across correctly. I meant that due to this change it is less likely to find any company sponsoring Quanta development because they need it themselves. > I made the remark once on the Quanta list that I wished it could be > ported to Windows so that I could recommend it to all those I know that > absolutely refuse to use Linux.

Aside from having to fix things that build or work nicely on Unix platforms, they also have to take care of providing executables and thinking about deployment.
