Why are you here?

I said "be able to ...".  If you are able to work with something 
other than one particular proprietary operating system, you have 
a choice, and you might understand why some people prefer the 
one you don't choose.

If you can really do all of those things, you should easily be 
able to take care of the gEDA windows port.
