Alight i'll except that Rodger. Wx may be unusable for the mobile market. And since the mobile market is exploding --and will continue to explode-- then we need to consider this. However, does any GUI library exist that can handle desktop, mobile, and accessibility and do it all in a 21st century way? You slaughtered wx but failed to provide any alternative, however i am listing to your advice contently because it is very good advice. Read on... We DO need to consider the mobile market in this decision. Maybe it is time for us to actually get on the cutting edge of GUI's. Maybe we should head an effort to create a REAL 21st century GUI that can handle desktop, mobile, and accessibility, and do it all whilst looking very sharp! Sure we rob from peter to pay paul. We will use Tkinters awesome API and geometry managers, wxPythons feature richness, and any other code we can steal to make this work! Then we can "advertise" python as the best GUI language available. I have nothing against seeing Python on more devices and this would no doubt bring that dream into fruition. There is a huge hole in the market at this very moment and we need to pounce on it like a hungry tiger on wildebeest. Just think how wonderful it would be to switch from mobile to desktop and still write beatiful Python code. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
