And then you are going to have three or four different distributors of
Python using three or four different GUI toolkits and also python.org
distributing Python for free without any (or with TKinter)... Which one
will be the "standard" distributor so that it gets documented and adopted?

In an international project I see othe problems as well -- cost, logistics,
S&H, customs, etc.
