After having looked the conference of Dirk Hohndel on last
linux.conf.au about the switch of his (together with  Linus)
application from GTK to Qt ... in a year

This took them a year of work and they are much more skilled than most of us.
Considering this could be done by a student over a summer is just unrealistic.

Grace has its root in the late 80's it is C code (in which I am not
especially fluent) Qt is C++ based. Moreover, Dirk noted some miss-fit
of Qt with C ...

So this is probably a great project but it will be difficult to
motivate somebody skilled enough to do this work
