that is a fair question, regarding the efficiency of man hours involved. To
me personally - having a GIS application that I'd want to run on the more
performance mobile platforms - the stack up to the graphical map rendering
makes sense to have in wx. That is the biggest part of my codes, and it can
be shared on all platforms. Now for the part above, GUI controls, dialogs I
absolutely agree that the decision is not that clear...

Best,

Stefan
