Well Im all for Mono (and even Java if we get a good performance AOT)
but Im just concerned that the Java/Mono deadlock will be perennial and
hence Gnome will be denied a nice RAD tool for many years to come.
Python will be great for small thin GUI apps but we need a RAD framework
for more substantial apps.
