Has the development of a native MS-Win driver continued ?

Moritz -

I've been thinking about installing winGRASS on my PC (running Win2000)
but have been avoiding it because of all the intermediary packages which
make the install very complex.

Just noticed this comment on your Grass Tutorial:
http://grass.itc.it/gdp/grass5tutor/HTML_en/c80.html

X11 window system for graphical output, development libraries (X
development libraries, in some linux distributions they are separate
packages)

http://www.xfree.org

(winGRASS: As alternative a generic MS-Windows driver is under
construction which does not require X11)

To your knowledge, has the development of the MS-Windows driver happened
yet?  It would be a lot easier to deal with to only have Cygwin in front
of winGRASS!!

Would appreciate your responce, Thanks!
