nRF BLE sniffer on Linux

Are there any plans to distribute nRF smart sniffer for Linux host or are there some work arounds. I've recently migrated my development environment from Windows+KEIL uVision to Linux and GNU Toolchain (Many thanks to this forum and some random piece of information in public domain) and everything works like a breeze.

According to the software requirements mentioned in the nRF Sniffer User guide, I would need Windows 7, but sorry I don't want to throw my money at M$.

I wonder why the hardware vendors assume that the world runs on Windows. I've faced similar problems with other hardware kit from other vendors as well in past. I think if the hardware vendors start assuming FOSS ecosystem for development, testing etc, the adoption would be far greater.
