Just a thought.

You could propose to Google to port Sage to run on Windows/ natively,
not.

I believe a complete native port would be an almost impossibility. I don't think many developers are keen on Windoze, so it would be less easy to attract developers unless they were paid to do it.

I must admit, I would have thought a Cygwin port easier than it seems to be. I recall at one time wondering whether the Solaris or Cygwin port would be completed first, but Solaris got there several years ago, and the Cgywin port seems less likely to be completed now than it did a few years ago.

Microsoft were at some time funding a Windoze port of Sage, but I believe the amount of funding they gave was far too small to make the slightest dent in the problem.
