You are seriously starting to sound like Xah Lee.

For a technocrat (and that's an insult, in my book), you have a 
really annoying bible-style type of speech (or do you just play too 
much WoW?).

Would you please stop to consider your own, what 4 or 5, years of 
programming experience to be enough to judge on such reasons?

Some thought-food for you: What other GUI toolkit even just *could* 
had been included by Pan, Jesus, Mohammed, Budda, or God herself? 
(it's *your* wording that makes me include such names)


> The answer is simple. We need a 100% Python GUI.

How many times did you say that now? Have you done anything to 
archive that goal? Have you even tried to support existing projects? 
I'm going to bet my right arm, that you haven't.

> Then and only then will Python be truly what GvR intended.

I must admit, you keep true with yourself and even advance on that. 
Now you not only claim to speech for the whole Python community, but 
for Guide himself.

Sorry, but how megalomaniac are you?
