DesireData's is quite nice, for example. Make the layout work well, make the text and buttons communicate well, provide useful things on the pd window, etc.

I'd be very happy with a slightly simpler version DesireData's. But its GPL, so we can't just take it for vanilla without getting copyright permission.

This looks exciting!

Just curious- what does "make a good pd window" mean?

A complete rewrite of Pd's GUI is starting to be
usable.  Miller has accepted the core of this code into
his repo for 0.43.  Now we need to get the whole thing
done!  There is now a branch for continuing off of
Miller's initial 0.43 commit here:

http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/branches/pd-gui-rewrite/0.43

There is a wiki page to keep track of progress with build
instructions, etc.:

Try it out on GNU/Linux or Mac OS X, no one's tried to get
it running on Windows yet, you could be the first.
Shouldn't be too hard since its all Tcl.  There is lots
of work left to do, and you can contribute in many different
ways. We always need testers, try using this Pd version in
your normal work, and report any and all bugs, problems,
feature ideas, etc. The simplest way is to contribute code
is to create a translation for Pd. You can also look thru
the Tcl source for things marked TODO and take a stab and
doing them. If you want to improve the GUI, make the new Pd
window for example, an announce your interest to
pd-dev to make sure there are no duplications of efforts.
