No kidding!  I think he puts more work into wxPython than a lot
of people put into their full-time jobs.  Every day right after
lunchtime (USA CST), there is always a whole batch of Robin's
answers to wxPython questions on the mailing list.

I write (fairly simple apps) on Linux and deploy on Windows.
There is an occasional glitch, but it works far better than
anybody has any right to expect.

wxPython combined with py2exe and inno-setup can make writing a
windows app something that won't drive you to threats of
suicide.
