It's very simple, choose the wrong toolkit, and you won't find any developers. (or the ones you find, you won't want)
I'm certainly not ever going to code for .net, they had their chance to put Qt and blew it.

It's extremely rude to force people to learn technologies that are INFERIOR.
It all depends who is paying. The nymphomaniac metaphor is inappropriate - technology whore would be more appropriate. I would do whatever I was paid to do. If I was paid to do MS, I did MS - if I was paid to do UNIX, I did UNIX. Professionals do what they are paid to do.

Mish.
