as you propably know the base part of GNUstep is rather stable on 
Windows. What is missing is a stable back end for GUI and a few minor 
parts of GUI that are OS dependent (NSWorkspace). The back end for 
Windows was a small effort I made last year to get GNUstep somehow 
runing on the only computer I had available while abroad. I stoped to 
work on it, when I was back home.
So, as usual with GNUstep there is no timeframe for it at all. If you 
want to pick up the work, feel free to do so. I may start this project 
again myself, if enough people ask for it. By now I do have a new 
computer at home with Windows XP installed on it, for which I did not 
find any proper use up to now.

Cheers
