I´ll start as soon as I can free up some time (next Monday after Math-Exam).
I hope it does not matter, that the port will be cygwin (will increase
size needed for dlls)..
The main-focus will be at gcj, because there´s for now no gui-toolkit
for gcj/winedows except for swt....

I´ve heard, that 0.8 will be a big step. Is the api stable, or will
there be big changes in the future?
Some time ago, you told us, that the 0.8 will have a completly new api.
I welcome this really very much, because there where many low-level
thigs in 0.71 which slew down development...
One question: On the swt-site I read that its very hard to use gc with
native toolkits. Is this also true for java-gtk, or can it handle
recources pretty well?
On Monday I´ll have a look to 0.8, maybe I can manage to use mingw32 for
the bindings themself, so cygwin-dlls will be only needed with gcj...

PS: Java-GTK is the most clear,easy and prductive toolkit, I´ve ever
used. I had a look to GTK+, AWT, SWING, MFC (uhhrrgg!) and WxWindows,
but Java-gnome and Java or best!
