Has anyone on here tried out Quickly? It's a new tool in Ubuntu 9.10
that does these things:

1. Includes a template for Glade that does a lot of the ground-work of
UI design for you (backend in Python)
2. Makes it easy to use bzr as version control on your own system for
your project
3. Builds Debian packages for you and uploads them to your PPA
4. Every one of those things I mentioned is just one command away.

If you want a demonstration:

I see this might be valuable in letting people write GUI frontends for
terminal tasks...

(let's agree to disagree on the other thing, eh?)
