Although I work almost exclusively in Linux, I've been teaching Python for several years as a sideline, and my students usually do not use Linux. I insist on teaching my students Python 3. Unless they're professionals who must work with legacy code (and, so far, none of them have been), I think I would be doing them a disservice to teach them Python 2. I started with WxPython, but WxPython/Phoenix has been very slow to migrate to Python 3. Between the Py3 requirement and the need to work with all major OS's, I decided to learn PyQt and not GTK+. In my current day job, I'm developing an application on a Linux box, but I'll be handing it off to Windows users. My choice of PyQt turned out to be the right one in that situation as well. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
