Any plans for a Sponge Port?

Sponge has a severe lack of world border plugins, so I was wondering if you'd be willing to port this plugin to sponge. If you need any assistance with that I'd be willing to contribute.
@Waterpicker If you ever manage to do that I will be so thankful and so will be many others too. This plugin is the best available Border-thingy to Minecraft servers and it's just so wrong that it supports only Bukkit. It's finally the time to bring this to the modded version of Minecraft, whether it happens through Sponge or Forge.
I'm not so familiar with Java, but if there's something I can do, I'll do it. Even if it requires me dancing with a cheerleader suit and yelling your name. (Ok, I went a little bit too far, but honestly, you need to do this.)
I have no plans to do so, sorry. My source is of course available here, and I give my blessing for anyone to port any part of it over to any system beyond Bukkit.
I have the code for this under the extremely permissive BSD license. I'm fine with anyone doing pretty much whatever they want with any part of the code, as long as there is a reference somewhere for the resulting project (on an info page, or in a text file included with the project, or pretty much anywhere related to the project) that some portion of code came from this WorldBorder Bukkit plugin.
I don't have any interest in maintaining such a port, as I'm unfamiliar with the Sponge API and don't have the time or inclination to learn it.
Of course, if someone does port it, they'll be the owner of their Sponge port of it. They can of course post their port's source on GitHub if they want and have people contribute to it, or whatever; as I mention above, all I require is a reference somewhere that some portion of the code came from my WorldBorder Bukkit plugin, that's all. Even if somehow they were able to only make the tiniest of changes to make it compatible and 99% of the entire code is from my Bukkit plugin, that's fine. Go for it. :)
