On that account only wx and qt are left as competitors, so that's worth bragging about.

Well, I am rather thinking about C#/.NET, Java and Python as competitors

But winning over C++ developers from wx/qt would be quite substantial success in itself. While winning over is always hard, there should be good chances with "freshmen". But upp must appear on their radar from the outset in the first place, that's the trick.
Also C#/.NET isn't so cross-platform and python in the end means pygtk, pyqt, wxpython, so...
Making that case is quite hard anyway. A few samples won't convince anyone, upp can compete in coding speed with those.
C++ suffers a bad reputation, and that's hurting.
What would help , on X11 especially, real working apps in the hand of the masses. Im always thinking, UWord would make a nice show-case, if it was enhanced a little more to be usable as a basic word processor. If it could compete with AbiWord somewhat, its footprint and speed might make some people take notice. Now, upp is rather invisible, and that's not helping.
