"On the 2008 GTK+ Hackfest in Berlin, Imendio's GTK+ hackers presented their vision of GTK+'s future and the reasons why they think that GTK+ has to make a step forward, embrace change and break ABI compatibility. Other GTK+ developers have also voiced their opinions, listing parts of GTK+ that need serious love, but state that they don't require breakage. Whether or not these are the things that will mark the road to GTK+ 3.0, almost all of them need attention. And give hints to the shape of things to come."

Hi Funky,
well Qt is available in two licenses: GPL and commercial license. If you don't like to open your code or pay for a license Qt is no alternative, then you should use Gtk.
If you are also willing to buy a license or GPL is ok for you, then Qt and Gtk are both ok.
If you plan to write applications for windows too I would prefer Qt. Why? Because imho it feels faster and it looks much better under windows than Gtk does.
Just my 2 cents.
Mike
