Thanks for telling me.

I've got the feeling that my move to Gtk3 was a bit too early.

Two reasons I decided to switch to pygobject :

* The advice on pygtk.org : "New users wishing to develop Python applicatio=
ns
  using GTK+ are recommended to use the GObject-Introspection features
  available in PyGObject."

* The fact that glade, that I wanted to use as well, now (from version 3.10)
  only supports GTK3 (or so I understand).

The documentation is not as prolific as for pyGTK, to say the least.

https://live.gnome.org/PyGObject points to

* A tutorial (work in progress) :
  http://readthedocs.org/docs/python-gtk-3-tutorial/en/latest/index.html

* A partial doc I don't really use :
  http://people.gnome.org/~johnp/girdocsalpha/Gtk/

* A few examples :
  http://developer.gnome.org/gnome-devel-demos/stable/

And as far as I heard, porting such applications to windows is not easy
either.

I would think it twice if I had to start a new project.
