The general feeling I get (from people who are using XVT) is that the
folks at XVT generally know what they're doing, but that the product
is still somewhat immature.  They seem to have chosen breadth of
platforms over depth of features, at least recently.  One thing I do
know is that there is currently some disparity the features that are
available on different platforms, so it's still not 100% portable, but
getting there.

One really nice thing that they've tackled is printing, which is more
than I've seen other toolkits do.
