I agree. My preference would be SDL and GTK+ based on self interest.

Both of these work well on the mobile/handheld devices I am interested
in. I have written some bindings to libsdl-console (the kind of thing
you find in Quake) with Chicken and it was very easy and worked well
on a handheld. I have not done any GTK+ programming but some fairly
influential mobile phone projects are being based on it.

For desktop development I use Cocoa but there is also GNUstep which I
have not tried. I am not sure there are many fans of Objective-C out
there though!

Perhaps we need to take a vote/poll on all the options available.

John.

It seems to me that here are two groups. One wants a slick API for
3D-OpenGL-game-development and the other a comparatively big API with
lots of standard-widgets for standard-looking desktop-applications.
Perhaps we should distinguish between the requirements these two
groups have? I suppose that two different APIs are necessary.
