Steven,
There are at least two definitions of "Pine for Windows-NT".

  -The first would be a port of the current Pine, with its
   character-oriented user interface, to Win-NT. 

  -The second would be a true GUI application, based on Pine
   but not necessarily having any visible similarity, that
   ran on Win-NT.

As for UW plans: we definitely intend to make a Winsock/Windows version
of Pine, with its current user-interface, and this same code might port 
to NT without much difficulty.  

As for a full GUI version of Pine for Windows (and thereafter, perhaps
Win-NT): we've certainly talked about it, and if resources permit, and
other alternatives don't obviate the need, we will definitely be
considering such a project.
