Sadly "doesn't mind working on a windows machine" rules out a lot more than just Sean. Not to belittle the work they've done in any way (from what I understand, it's pretty impressive), but using Java, Ruby, Python, etc. rather than .NET would have made for a much larger target audience. Java seems the obvious choice, since CF is itself a Java application, but any cross-platform environment would have worked just as well.
