The project has been started. http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxtv.
There isn't much to see. As with all projects unless some serious effort is 
undertaken to boost this it will remain where it is right now.

Currently my personal feeling is that there is little need among Joe Average 
and Jane Doe as they have just been introduced to GUIs like KDE, XP , MAC OSX 
and so on. Despite this I will continue to support the guys at wxtv and just 
maybe we will see a text-based Gnumed in the future.

BTW. wxtv will be developed against wxwidgets 2.5.
