People have created ports inside a week.  Look at the OS X port, which
took only a couple of weeks.  It's not difficult.  It's easy.

The Windows version isn't done yet not because it's difficult, but
because nobody's been spending a significant amount of time on it
recently.

A Framebuffer-based front end is never going to be satisfactory for a
desktop system.  Stop flogging the horse.  It's dead.
