Downloaded the “Official Winduhs” Client, been looking up the developers area, it wouldn’t be very difficult to make a PHP-GTK client, hmmmm, the key factor is finding time to do it ….. have got at least 5 Open Source projects languishing due to lack of time BUT please note that does not imply that I am doing a lot of work 
New client.
An interesting client would be one that abstracts the actual “posting” mechanism to allow for other journal targets. For example, an inhouse client-activity reporting tool. The front end should remain the same (subject and body text). A the very least, it should be able to doa regular form post with http auth.
Plus a few shortcuts. For example, I have a mechanism on my pages that expands {{http://livejournal.com/~tariquesani||Tarique}} to
Tarique
Much easier and faster to write.
Re: New client.
Good Idea, and such a beast already exists – try WikiWikiWeb or any good clone of the same, There are several PHP clone which are really good
