Whilst the answer is probably "no", saying that definitively in an open 
source context is very difficult, because it only needs one potential 
developer who didn't read your posting, but was working on an Android 
port, to invalidate this.  There is no central committee that makes such 
decisions.

My understanding though is that Android is sufficiently far from a Posix 
environment, that such a port would be a major job.  Also, my 
understanding is that the GUI libraries used have not been ported to 
Android.

Incidentally, a commercial developer also wouldn't answer that sort of 
question, unless they were about to issue the press release, anyway.
