Qt and GTK is the only options. GTK has the best license _and_ is very
easy. GTK has a lot of bindings and is very crossplatform.
People that want to use Qt prob. prefer Qtopia over OM, so I think GTK is
the only correct thing.
Anyway, I will write my code with GTK+2.0 and ANSI C and maybe I also
write something in Vala (very high level GTK programming and very easy).
