Well, I'm a C++ booster, so I'm in favor. But for the long term, why keep the 
core and engine in C? Letting the C++ genie out of the bottle means that we can 
over time redesign and rewrite the non-gui code as well. (Have you looked at 
Phil's roll-his-own vtable implementation in backend? He could have done it in 
a tenth the code and probably a hundredth of the time in C++. It would be 
faster, too, because the compiler would make optimized vtables in machine code.)

While I would have preferred Wx to Qt, either is a big improvement over 
Gtk+/Gnome for platform-independence, so another +1.
Qt does have the advantage that the aqbanking interface is already in Qt, so we 
need only one toolkit. (Do note that there is a C++ interface to Gtk+ called 
Gtkmm.)

John Ralls
