 I'm wondering if there is any interest in maintaining the GTK software

Part of what you want need is distribution support.  You might find it
amusing to see how crazy fast GPE on Gentoo, a meta Linux distribution,
can be ported to a phone:

 As a first step, get anything you think is patent worthy documented

 and mail it to yourself in a sealed envelope.  You don't open the
 envelope until you need to and you do it with a lawyer present.  The
 postmark on the envelope holds up very strongly to prove the date of
 the material.

What prevents you from mailing yourself an unsealed envelope?
