Hi I have been lurking on this list for some time without posting and have contributed nil to multisync and opensync, so you you might as well ignore my comments.
If you want publicity, you might want to update the multisync page and provide a link to opensync. I suppose multisync gets much more hits than opensync. BTW, I just looked at the multisync page and it's broken. You ge a directory view. You can still view the page by selecting news.php there, but this should really be fixed (sorry, if you have just been working on it). I have some experience with gui design. Skript is definitely the way to go. With ruby/python you get better results faster than with lower level languages plus you get portability if you choose the right toolkit. The built in toolkits are ugly (they are all based on tk from tcl/tk). I have never used WXWindows, so I'll not comment on it. Toolkit bindings for QT or gtk have the disadvantage, that you add requirements without gaining much if you don't aim for thorough desktop integration. They are particularly fiddly to install on Windows. When using ruby I'd recommend FoxTk. It is particularly easy to implement, it looks OKish (it does not mimic other tks so it will look a bit alien anywhere, which is the sole disadvantage). And it comes with the ruby installer for Windows, which is big plus. When you want to use python, you should investigate which of the more advanced tks is most commonly used with python. I don't think python has something like like fox - a de facto standard advanced tk included in standard Windows installer. Thus any tk with its own Windows installer would suffice. You should also look at swig to get opensync language bindings for the scripting language of your choice (http://www.swig.org/).
