Two contradictory thoughts ..

(a) Cross-platform isn't really a challenge if you
mean only various Unices. That's too easy.

(b) "Forever" really means "until the platform is
next rebooted for other reasons." For a Sun or
Linux workstation, "forever" might be a year or
more. Windows has a clear advantage in this regard:
"forever" is shorter. A lot shorter.
