+1 for going ahead with the splash screen. Also, maybe not for RC2 but soon, it would make more sense and be more like other programs to have the splash screen come first, followed by the startup screen.

Setting up a proper poll system is not that easy and requires time (who can participate, keep poll open for some week(s) etc). At time it is for RC2 only anyway which we need to get out asap. I would like to suggest (facing to RC2, which has been already postponed) to: 1) backport current version of splash screen and startup banner as it's in trunk 2) backport also new version startup screen which has been improved in trunk Then to release RC2, what do you think? Martin +1 The only caveat is that I still have that empty window showing up for a while before the image appears shortly before the window disappears. Apparently the wx.Yield() et line 79 of gui/wxpython/wxgui.py does not have the immediate effect of displaying the image. Moritz
