I know someone here was thinking of submitting patches to add it

cURL. This would be a really great thing. Who was planning on doing
that?
There is still kio_slave for Konqueror, but there is nothing for
Chrome.
I should try to get my AIR-based client off the ground again. It
works,
but it has no real interface of any sort.
We need to get gopher to where people live. Even if we're not the core
part of popular clients, we should still be an option.
I know not a lot of people necessarily use it, but OmniWeb (for the
Mac) supports gopher, although it can't handle searches currently.
It would be nice if we could get the project to implement full
gopher support.
There's also Mateusz's Windows gopher/gopher+ client.
There's also snarf, although it would be nice to see gopher in cURL
too and even wget for that matter.
There's even a shell script out there that browses gopherspace for
the command line junkie:
gopher://sdf.org/0/users/yargo/scripts/nago
Something tells me this is a good opportunity to start fresh.
I'm not a programmer but is there one development platform that
crosses 'nix, Linux, Windows, and Mac that could be used to start a
new client build?
Curse my lack of programming skills. :-(
