Please don't confuse History gratuitously. Make that mid 90's.

 This is a big deal in that while tkinter came with (just about) every
 Python the desire to use wxWidgets or Qt etc was high because tkinter
 widgets just look so horrid.

I liked Tk a lot, but also moved to wx because of Tk's LF.  Tk is
great for simple tool interfaces.  Great news.

 The Python 3.1a web page still had what's new in Python 2.7 on the web
 page so does this also enter the Python 2.x branch?  I don't know yet.
 But it so I might have a push to move off of 2.5.4 finally for the so
 simple GUi based apps I have.

Yes, it will be in 2.7.

Wow, I've never used tkinter for a proper app because of it's looks, but
I may now once I start using python 2.7 (or 3.1)

 the desire to use wxWidgets or Qt etc was high because tkinter
 widgets just look so horrid. 

How come nobody ever mentions Gtk?

 Good job python-dev team.

And especially Guilherme Polo for doing all the tough work as far as I
tell from the issue and the commit logs.
Am I right this was a Google Summer of Code project? If so then thanks
to Google as well for sponsoring it.
