How many people are working on this port? How many people will be  
interested in using it, considering that a direct port won't use many of  
D2's features (why not just use D1)? Will this port be around in 1 year? 5  
years? Will it have the same kind of momentum as the original D1 version,  
with as many developers working on it, fixing bugs etc.? Will the API  
always stay in sync with the developments in the original D1 version? What  
about all the existing documentation, tutorials, even book(s)?

Sorry, having more options is a good thing, but I think there is a lot  
more to a real "Tango for D2" than just someone fixing the code so it  
compiles and works.
