I am also developing a gui toolkit (for somewhat similar reasons to you, though unrelated to Swing) but it's for pyglet only. If you're interested, you can find it in the pyglet SVN under contrib/wydget. It's under heavy development and is fairly advanced (in terms of widgets, layouts, dialogs etc implemented) already. > Please reply and let your thoughts be known.
