Everyone would be interested in having a more native look&feel for GNUstep
on Windows. :-)

... (specially menus).

I'm not exactly sure what you mean / are planning in the rest of your
email ... but "starting a new project" doesn't seem the right approach to
me in order to get a more native Windows look&feel.

This is a free software project ... you are very welcome to contribute and
help us.  If you submit good patches, they will be accepted.  You don't
need to start a new project in order to make some changes you want ... ;-)

Thanks
