Reading this thread and the one on koffice-devel I _think_ the contest is 
about providing KO on windows _now_ and not in 2007. On koffice-devel  
something like this was said: "make it happen instead of just talking about 
it".
Well, I think the one who donates the money is not informed that koffice2 is 
on its way, Qt4 is OSS on windows and that a nonfunctional KOffice 1.5.x is 
not a gain for KOffice.

</interpretation>
