I have taken the time to learn something different and am fairly used to using wxPython and and am also figuring out gtk. I personally don't write as much gui code as I used to so it isn't a huge issue for me and I can take my time learning.
I was just answering the question on how I would allocate resources into improving Linux. It seems to me that making it as easy as possible for developers to migrate over or start fresh is the way to go. It would mean more people writing code on and for Linux distributions.
Creating gui apps should be as easy on linux as it is on windows.
gtk and glade are pretty good but aren't as easy to control the layout and size of the widgets as they are in windows.
If there was a Python IDE that was as feature rich and similar to Visual Studio it would make the transition for Windows developers writing programs for Linux a whole lot easier and more attractive.
Well, panspermia has the argument of time. How long could life survive without the earth's magnetic field protection from cosmic rays? This problem weakens the theory's argument of time.
One problem with the theory as I understand it is that comets don't have a magnetic field blocking cosmic rays and so the DNA in any cells on a comet would deteriorate from cosmic ray bombardment. The presence of cosmic rays means there would be a limited lifespan for cells to survive on a comet.
