GNUe currently supports (some are tested more than others) win32, gtk,
motif, curses and mac GUI. A Java client is being authored as well and a web
client is anticipated in the very near future.

If you want Java, LinuxKontor is probably a better choice for you.
Because of its popularity, some of the GNUe team is working on a Java client
(although it is not a priority). We do know that Java works with GEAS. However,
Java is NOT the preferred language as it has issues with its ownership. Because
this is a free software project we will provide all functionality using free
software. We do expect that Java will work well with GNUe, but using Java will
be your choice.
+</p>
+<p>
+Tonight I was reading over some of the documentation on GNUe. It occurred to
me that Mozilla & XUL might make a great front end UI to this system. Instead
of creating multiple GUI front ends for the different environments you wish to
support, you could make one XUL front end that could run on every platform that
Mozilla can run on (and there are a lot). Is there some reason you've chosen
not to do this?
+</p>
+<p>
+This has been talked about in infinite detail, but the summary is that
browsers don't make good front ends for Enterprise systems. If we used Java it
gets a little better, but Java is not free software. So we are using Python as
the core development language.
+</p>
+<p>
+I doubt that XUL and Mozilla are considered Enterprise ready. However, CORBA,
Python, SQL92 (PostGreSQL) are all approaching stable acceptance. This
decision is not about what technology will work but about what Enterprise
customers will accept.
