I think this forum has a problem about keeping threads on-topic

Cross platform support really isn't a big deal from a source level. Building packages is where the time is spent. The majority of the cross platform support comes from Qt. There is a surprising little amount of actual cross platform code in Sigil itself.

You're right. I thought leaving the packaging efforts out of scope would lessen the work. Just like in the case of Linux, some people would just hadle the packaging for Windows and doesn't need to be involved in the programming at all.
That said, perhaps the only way to really "save" the project is to convince a copule of serious developers joining the team.
Now, back to COBOL discussion.
