Eh, maybe I was misundertsood. I didn't mean to consider the hypothesis to move to QT. I was asking, as Luca, about the reasons of the choice. I'm not a programmer too, so it's better to me (as many of us) to use an easier development framework like wxPython then QT. I just noted that it could have been a chance to develop both QGis and Grass on the same GUI environment. It hasn't been so, and that's ok. I also would have vote for wxPython two years ago! :-)
