Admin interface: Python to Java ?

Hi folks,

  As you probably know, I've been working on a
administration GUI for
  Cherokee which is meant to be included in the 0.6 release.

  So far, I wrote everything using Python and the GTK+
bindings, which
  seemed to be the best option at the time that I began.

  Yesterday announcement of Java GPL licensed made me think
that it
  may not be the best approach though.

  As long as we support Windows and MacOS X, it may make
more sense to
  develop the GUI using Java rather than Python plus the
GTK+ binding.
  It would make it easier to use on those OSes, it's Free
Software
  from now on, and widely deployed.

  What do you think guys?


  PS: Remember that it's just a administration GUI that you
will use
  time to time to reconfigure the server, that's all.
Everything else
  (the server, the libraries and the plug-ins) will remain
being
  written in plain and fast C.
