I would ask this question on the pyqt/pykde mailing list... but, for
what's its worth, I've been using PyQt (on Linux) for > 4 years, and am
very happy with it. I find it very "Pythonic". When I first started
looking at UI toolkits, the decision came down to wx vs. Qt. I found wx
a bit more complex and cryptic and less OO than Qt. Also, I find Qt
Designer + Eric to be a nicer development environment than Boa
Constructor. The main problem with Qt is apparently licensing issues on
Windows... I can't comment since I only use PyQt/Qt on Linux.
