I think the majority of work here has been put into designing and implementing the UI. A friend did something like the core a while back, in a couple of days. I'm sure many others have and many others will. I'd also think that app store copycats try and pick easy, profitable projects. Just having the core implemented in Go would probably be a turn-off for many of them. I really appreciate keeping the core FLOSS and hope that it won't cause problems for the author.
