Well, if you are concerned by the one-man-show issue, then you should
go with PyQt because you should easily be able to write code that works
with both, PyQt and PySide.
My main concern is about graphics. I have to find a replacement for
PyQwt (not any longer maintained and only available for PyQt).

Hopefully, you don't mind jumping into this (old) thread...
Several years ago I wrote the same simple application in both
toolkits. After that, it became obvious that PyQt was the way to go.
The wx toolkit was not very friendly to use, reminding me way too
much of the bad old days with Microsoft's MFC. PyQt is really
cross-platform: something written and debugged on Linux is very
nearly guaranteed to work well on Windows, and vice-versa. On
wxPython, there was no shortage of platform-specific bugs.
I'm in the same boat today...abandoned idea to wait & use some
working
GUI library in D language and decided to learn & use python.
Personally, I use gtk-based desktop (Xfce) and I like it, but would
like to write general-purpose desktop open-source application capable
to run on Linux, Mac & Windows.
I cannot speak about wx's API (un)friendliness and/or
platform-specific
bugs, but my main concern is that wxWidgets project does not have
many
active developers...
Of course, PyQt is, afaik, mostly one-man show, similar to wxpython
and
tireless work from Robin Dunn, but, otoh, Qt has much bigger
development community.
What do you think about my concern in regards to this dilemma and/or
some other relevant point to decide properly[1] ?
Let me add that I also plan to use Cython (for speed purposes of
project's back-end functionality), as well as to use Python3.
[1] my project will be done in my spare time, so I'd like to avoid
learning and coding in the 'wrong' toolkit which is not properly
developed/maintained.
Sincerely,
Gour
