I'm very glad to hear that!

They will be available in the final 0.2 release. (More info can be
found in the TODO.txt file in the distribution.)

That too, in a way... It's a balancing act -- but we definitely will
try to cover the more common advanced components (such as tree
widgets, menus, graphics canvases, tables...)

At the moment we're trying to pick up the pace after a long lull in
the development. Things have been progressing slowly but surely --
we're aiming for an alpha release (0.2a0) by the end of the month.
That release will only have (more or less) the same functionality as
release 0.1.1, but with a new internal implementation/architecture
which should make it easier to add new functionality and to maintain
things.

I'm glad to hear it :)

If you have any input/code/whatever, feel free to contribute/speak
your mind.
