[pypy-dev] Leysin

[Matti Picus]

It would be nice to get a modern gui widget set working with pypy.
Personally, I prefer a more liberal license, which leads to wx rather 
than qt, but I imagine, given the name of your company, that you do not 
share my preference :).
In any case, you might want to take a look at the wxPython-cffi Google 
Summer of Code project for the amount of work involved in porting a code 
generator to cffi. WxPython uses sip, pyside uses shiboken.
