Not at all.  We need more people who are interested in improving the
usability of Mozart/Oz under Windows and other platforms.  Better yet,
would be people willing to put some development effort into such
improvements :-)

Indeed, this would be very desirable.  However, I do not find the
prospect of a purely Windows-specific effort appealing.  It would be
much more desirable to plan for embedded uses of Mozart technology,
with COM as one instance application.

uh? I don't get that.
