pyQT, 

very mature cross platform high performance, graphically rich toolkit, 
support for internationalization, new support for macs, runs on embedded 
devices (zope admin for the palm:), lots of features. ibm's investing for 
voice recoginition. qtdesigner is very nice gui design environment with xml 
xports that will allow code generation for all supported platforms. qt3.0 has 
some nice db/io abstractions in the toolkit. the windows version is not free 
but if you're willing to plop down some change for a dev. license you can 
release a windows version. the x win stuff is gpl'd

btw. you should maybe have a look at wingide.com and check out their patches 
to interface to zope.

cheers
