[Kde-bindings] Stability of Qyoto and QyotoDevelop?

Hi,

I'm currently in the middle of writing an app for Mono and .Net (using
C# at the moment) with a common back-end and desktop-specific front-ends
(e.g. WinForms for Windows and currently GTK# for Linux). I use Gnome
for my daily desktop, but I'm not adverse to using the odd Qt app,
especially now that Qt4 can look like a native GTK app.

I've seen Qyoto as the Mono bindings for Qt and would really like to try
it, but QyotoDevelop (Qyoto integration for Qt) doesn't work with the
latest MonoDevelop. When I asked FireRabbit on Twitter about an update,
he said that Qyoto was unstable at the moment and that he didn't
recommend using it [1]. Is this the case or is it usable? And does
anyone know of any working tools to help build Qyoto apps with MonoDevelop?

I'm far too used to using WinForms for Windows or SWT for Java apps
where there is a nice, convenient and sensible object-oriented
interface. All of this C-like GTK is driving me crazy, and it'd be great
if Qyoto could be the purer OO UI toolkit I need :)

Thanks,

IBBoard
