My initial reaction is that I would not vote to accept GIL into Boost unless it came with a cross-platform UI.
Andy, GIL is designed to solve a very specific problem - abstracting away the image representation from algorithms applied on images. A well-done and complete user interface library is a huge undertaking and is very much orthogonal to the problem of image manipulation. If you need a UI library, one pointer for you are the Adam/Eve libraries at http://opensource.adobe.com They are open-source, very much Boost-friendly, cross-platform and widely used commercially (we use them for our products too). We are also working on having a GIL integration with the Adam/Eve libraries (the picture widget will be a GIL image) Lubomir
