Erm, there is a big hint: patches welcome.
Ncurses has the disadvantage of being a bit "underdocumented".
So programming isn't that much fun, although when someone is willing to
start, help will be there for sure :)
Though we don't limit ourselves to one GUI. From what I've heard on IRC,
nobody declined a request for other toolkit(s) if other people help with it.
