N1. Ultimate++:

PROS:
- New C++ GUI toolkit
- Aims to enable more productivity than all existing toolkits
- Very nice GUI Designer and debugger works in both Windows and Linux
- BSD license! No fear of auto-granting patents & reverse-engineering
rights to users if this is used in commercial products (unlike GPL and LGPL)
- Actively being developed. Last release April 2005.

CONS:
- Current version is 0.98.5 (Released April 11, 2005) pre-1.0 scares people away
- Smaller userbase since it is newer than others but growing (so is ruby)
- Needs ruby bindings asap!
- Documentation is hard-to-find because it only exists with their IDE as a
custom tool! They really need to provide that info in webpages online...
