Yes. Although, if I get enough developers for the port and if at the same
time the development of the "main" project dies down the parallel will be
the main ;-). This is a great product and it would be nice to see that the
development continues. 

PostgreSQL administration software (pgAdmin) developers actually did the
port to wxWindows recently with their main project. In my opinnion 
the results were exellent. In this day and age when a lot of companies are
swaying between Windows and Linux, offering a software that runs in both
helps users to adopt it. As the number of users increase so do the
developers.
