RE: status of Jython? (Brian Durney)

It seems this subject comes up occasionally, and I really don't know the
answer either;  However, I will say this.....

My motivation for using Jython stems from wanting to convert a windows 
based application to a cross platform type.

The selection of Jython for this project made a lot of sense, as Java's
swing
compenents were loaded with great features.    I could not find similar 
widget support in any other gui library for Python.  My app can now
run on any machine with java RE, and could be ported to run from 
a web browser if that is appropriate in the future.   

I did find that Jython was easier to get up and running than some of the
other GUIs that were available for Python.  Overall, from my small app,
the Jython environment made a lot of sense and worked well.
