The main problem with BOa is that the GUI designer does not suport the 
concept of sizers. The commercial GUI designer for wxWindows/ wxPython 
works with sizers, but unfortunately creates code which is close to 
impossible to maintain manually without this commercial software - and 
this is not acceptable for a free software project.

If you have done it for a while, you'll find it much quicker anyway to 
construct your GUI manually via cut'n'paste from a "component library" 
text file than visually with a designer.

However, I found using wxDesigner initially invaluable inlearning and 
understanding wx.
