Great work so far, I'm really looking forward to see the finished product. But I also want to add my voice to those who ask you to consider supporting Linux. My Linux system is just perfect as a music workstation. Recently the first version of Bitwig Studio has been released, which is a capable daw and contender to Ableton Live that runs natively on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. The only thing missing is a professional notation software. The only reason why there aren't more linux users is the hesitance of commercial software developers to port professional software to linux, while there are a lot of linux users already who would be glad to buy the software licenses just to avoid dual booting or installing windows in a virtual box.
