Not all OS's are the same contrary to other's opinion. From listening 
to programmers on other list there are many features that are much 
easier to implement in Linux than in Windows, and some things are 
extremely difficult at best, so the fact that they will be doing 
their main development in Linux doesn't bother me at all.

None of the developers have stated that Windows will not be 
supported, but the pecking order will be first in Linux, then in 
Windows. It's hard enough to figure out a feature and get it working 
without also fighting the OS at the same time. Once you got it 
working on an OS that doesn't impede you then you can concentrate on 
how to get Windows to work.

In the end it doesn't matter what we think, the guys making the 
software work, both volunteers or paid employees will make that 
decision. I'm not worried about it, the people at Flex are no fools 
they will make sure that the software is available for the OS most 
people are using.
