Well one time I was asked to write an xml configurable gui based on pui,
but I suppose that would create an undesireable requirement for opengl on 
the clients.   Seems as though it could be possible design an xml based
"script" that could be backended with just about anything though.

As far as java is concerned, my feelings are mixed.  Java is a very
interesting and fun language, but for the most part anything of consequence
running in jvm seems to be a little pigish and fails to take full advantage of
much of what gui style interface is best for.  With it's proprietary licensing
it'd be a shame if it turned into the favored platform for Flight Gear gui
clients, imho.

Best,

Jim
