I know I'm really late in this discussion, I'm sorry.<br>
I just wanted to say I've been thinking in the same direction as
Jameson.<br>
I was playing with the code of Status.Net Desktop application a
couple of weeks ago:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://status.net/desktop">http://status.net/desktop</a> - its coded using the Appcelerator
Titanium API, which<br>
provides a single API for coding in Python, PHP, Ruby and Javascript
for working with<br>
Desktop items like Tray Icons, Notifications, etc.<br>
<br>
I think the ability to program GUI items in html+css and code the
callbacks in Python<br>
would be pretty cool and would make life easier for activity
developers <br>
(or easier for users, if we succeed in improving activities's user's
experiences).<br>
<br>
I'll study Pyjamas.<br>
Thanks for the pointer.<br>
<br>

<div>I should have said: a vision, a user community, a developer
community, and a codebase. We want to move forward; that means
piggy-backing on the progress of others as much as possible,
without losing our important assets. Don't churn the UI, so as
not to lose our users; don't churn the programming language
without good reason, to keep developers and code; but do try
to hill-climb towards the largest crowd making fastest
progress. And that, in turn, means trying to find the shortest
path between us and stuff like Android, HTML5, etc., which
have large communities actively progressing on the cutting
edge.</div>

<div>That's the justification behind my pyjamas proposal.</div>

<div>PS. while it's not really relevant, yes, I do have
experience in the field; I founded and taught for two years in
a rural Guatemalan public school.</div>
