I have no experience with GUI programming in Python, but from this
discussion it seems if the type of license is not an issue (for FOSS
development), PyQt is the best tool because it is:
(a) easier to learn and intuitive for programming (this is important
to me; I am not that smart...);
(b) more stable (although many people have said that wxPython is as
stable as any other GUI nowadays; but not more stable (wx) than
others);
(c) more cross-platform (many people complain that they have to do a
lot of things in wxPython for the cross-platform).

Is (a) and (c) true or not? If so, how big are these advantages?

The great advantage of wxPython seems to be the huge community of
users and the large number of widgets/examples/applications available.

Reformulating my question:

Which GUI tool, wxPython or PyQt, is more pythonic? (Please, ignore
the license issue because I am thinking about FOSS)
