You found a solution for you, which is a good thing. I don't want to rule out to use Dabo myself. But in my institute I'd like to present Python as a viable alternative to Delphi. In order to convince people who are used to a homogeneous rock-solid system, you must present something equivalent. Of course an open-source project can never be as homogeneous, but I can't make the whole team switch to a niche project, ignoring all other GUI alternatives about which you can even buy books in German! They'll think "strange, that Python" (or maybe "strange that Torsten" ;). > It would be great if the wxPython folks would adopt Dabo, and > eventually integrate it so that there is but a single, Pythonic > way of working with wxPython, Yes indeed.
