</I>Okay, Ill join in the conversation tomorrow after a good sleep.
In short however, the beauty of using libYui is that qt/gtk/curses are 
supported by all modules implicitly.
Also libYui is actively developed and maintained by attachmate/opensuse, 
and has been ported to fedora, ubuntu, debian and Gentoo. The biggest 
issues people seem to have is lack of resources to build and maintain, 
well using this method we offload half of the development effort (Ui 
layer already developed, tested and maintained). Collaboration with 
other major distro's increases the developer pool and reduces the 
maintenance load.

You are not a perl developeer, what do you code in? libYui is in C++ 
with bindings for perl, python and ruby that I know of.

Anyway, chat soon, would love to keep the discussion going.
