Thanks for the notice, Chris.  I know this list is very quiet now, but I
thought I'd mention that I still use and love Boa Constructor for a few
reasons:  Boa Constructor provides usable code completion, call tips,
refactoring support, debugging that just works without any
configuration, code browsing, TODO list, interactive console, and GUI
creation all wrapped into one interface.

Aptana's PyDev extension to Eclipse has eclipsed Boa to some extent in
some but not all of these areas.  So here's how I work:  If I only need
a quick edit or a quick script, I use gedit.  If I need more features, I
use Boa.  If I need even more web-development features, I use Aptana. 
So Boa continues to hold a very important place in my toolbox.

Specifically, Aptana can replace Boa for syntax highlighting, code
completion, call tips, refactoring, code outline but not browsing, and
TODO list.  So far its debugger, interactive console, code browsing,
TODO list, and GUI creation have not matched Boa's for me.

wx.StandardPathsBase evidently now needs a wx.App instantiated first.
and the property wx.NO_3D no longer exists.

I'm not thinking these are bugs to be fixed, but I thought this list
should be made aware of the effects of the 2.9.x branch on Boa
Constructor.
