Did you take a look at OSSIM? At some point in the past, they were
wx-based, though I don't know what they are up to now.
It seams like they switched to qt. I know it is possible to find a lot
of references on the web where wx, qt, gtk, even Tcl/TK are compared.
But I am wondering if there is some Geospatial reason to pick qt instead
of wx.
I doubt it -- at least not with raster data. A while back wx's vector
drawing was pretty limited (no alpha support), but it now has a better
drawing API, or you can use it with Agg or Cairo, or?? There may well be
other reasons to choose QT, but I doubt they are specific to Geospatial
applications.
As a matter of fact, as much as I like QGIS, I think it would work
better if it were written in wx, at least on teh MAc -- for example, teh
file open dialog sucks -- with wx, it would use the native one, which
would be much better.
Some time I wish that OpenEv could use wxPython instead of python+TK.
It doesn't use Tk, it uses GTK, but your point is the same.
SAGA had promise, but it seems to be kind of stalled.
