It appears that Konfabulator, a desktop "widget" program originally developed for the Mac OS, is being rewritten for the Windows platform. Jeff Sandquist noted that a post to the Konfabulator forum from one of their developers broke the news.

Hello all. You are probably wondering why I am posting in the Journal area. Well, for starters because I can! But really, it's to say "Hi" and let you know that I'm the poor soul who's been working on finishing up the Windows version of Konfabulator. Yes, a die hard Mac guy is writing the Windows version. But I have to say, it's been a blast so far. I'm actually enjoying doing Windows stuff, and I am very happy to be using development tools that work.

As far as progress, let's just say we are in the final stretch. I won't be giving away what works and what doesn't at present, but it is very cool seeing your favorite Mac widgets work on the PC. When this thing is finally out there, We'll be releasing a document on how to do cross-platform widgets to help you ensure the widest audience for your cool creations.

This release is going to be nothing short of amazing. And we have plans going forward that will make your head spin!

A screenshot looks very promising.
