Unfortunately, another project snatched that student, but we \nwere scarce on GSoC slots anyway.\n\nThis would have been very nice for me, as I almost exclusively work on \nLinux these days.  And I finally grasped the concept of \"scratching your \nown itch\".\n\nSo no, I have almost no intention on continuing to work on Git-Cheetah on \nWindows.  \n\nHaving said that, we had a contributor who seemed to be quite willing to \ncontinue working on Git-Cheetah, as can be seen from the commit history.  \nHowever, I have the impression that my comments on his patches put him off \nsomewhat, even if I really liked his work.\n\nCiao,\nDscho\n"}]}
