This is a bit off-topic, but I'm sure there is some value in it. Since 
upgrading my new distro, I thought I'd give the new Red Carpet a spin to 
update everything. Upon trying to run it from the CLI, I came upon a python 
traceback! Looking into the code, I realized that the entire thing is written 
in python using PyGTK+! While they should've definately used PyQt, it's 
encouraging to see major enterprise apps looking to python as their 
framework. It also looks like PyGTK+ has implemented somewhat of a clone of 
signal/slots, with obj.emit() and obj.GTK_SIGNAL(). Next time someone says 
that a good, solid solution can't be done using python and a GUI toolkit, 
here's another case study.

Peace,

Eron
