  <h1>Merits:</h1>
  <p>1 - ease of design / integration - learning curve</p>
  <p>2 - support / availability for *nix, Windows, Mac, extra points for native l&amp;f, support for mobile or web</p>
  <p>3 - pythonic API</p>
  <p>4 - quality of documentation - I want to do something a bit more complicated, now what?</p>
  <p>5 - light weight packaging so it's not necessary to include a full installer (py2exe, py2app would ideally work as-is and not generate a gazillion MBs file)</p>
  <p>6 - licensing</p>
  <p>7 - others? (specify)</p>
  <hr />
  <h1>Contenders:</h1>
  <p>1 - tkinter, as currently supported (as of 2.6, 3.0)</p>
  <p>2 - pyttk library</p>

  <p>4 - pyQt</p>
  <p>5 - wxPython</p>
  <p>6 - HTML-CGI via Python-based framework (Django, Turbogears, web.py, Pylons...) or Paste</p>
