I, in the lab. People at Airbus research labs (Bristol, UK), people at Estimages (http://www.estimages.com/), people at jgeophysics, and quite a few other researchers, for in house applications in labs (just have a look at the enthought-dev mailing list. Airbus have actually paying a former Enthought employee (Martin Chilvers) to develop Envisage3, and have payed Phil Thompson (author of PyQT) to do the QT backend. This backend is working now quite well as they are using it for their day-to-day work. > A specific concern we had when investigating Traits a couple of > years ago was long start up times. I don't really think this has improved a lot. You would have to try it out to see. However my experience is that if you are not loading Wx, traits by itself is fast, if you are loading Wx, you are limited by the cost of loading Wx. I may be wrong, as I have no hard numbers. > The lack of clear boundaries between traits and other parts of > enthought was a further concern, since it would make deployment more > difficult. That's pretty much solved. The Enthought Tool Suite has been split in projects, each of them that can be further split in packages (just a look at their SVN structure will tell you exactly how it is done: https://svn.enthought.com/enthought/browser ).
