Hi Sean,

Start on the control and keep sending versions to this mailloop. Put it in 
a single file and make it run as a demo when run as __main__.

You'll get lots of help once you get it past a certain point. Don't worry 
about how ugly the code is -- people will help you with that.

This approach worked for me and I'm pretty fresh to all these 
free/open-source technologies. There are some pretty smart developers who 
are active on this mailloop.

Let's see that control!  Don't hesitate to send the file to this loop, so 
far nobody seems to mind.

PS - I have at least one major application that I'm considering porting to 
Python that uses the tree as it's central control (with drag/drop et al). 
So I'd be very interested in what you're doing.
