I can't say much about lablgtk, but as far as gtk is concerned, I believe there is no future for it multi-platform wise. Have you read/seen: http://lwn.net/Articles/562856/ http://www.superlectures.com/guadec2013/gtk-to-infinity-and-beyond Otoh, Qt project is strongly positioned with many devs, actively developed, no problem with the license etc. and my humble suggestion is to put lablgtk into maint. mode and focus, as community, on providing lablqt to attract new users to write GUI apps in such a fine language as OCaml. Sincerely, Gour -- One who is not disturbed in mind even amidst the threefold miseries or elated when there is happiness, and who is free from attachment, fear and anger, is called a sage of steady mind. http://www.atmarama.net | Hlapicina (Croatia) | GPG: 52B5C810
