Other GUI toolkits I've noticed dying with great promises:

- aedGUI    http://aedgui.sourceforge.net/
- ParaGUI   http://www.paragui.org/

Via Googling on +aedGui +ParaGUI gave me some "new" candidates:

- GiGi http://www.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl/2005-December/071742.html - Agar http://www.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl/2006-June/074797.html

Agar actually looks alive.

Personally, I will be going for Cairo as to the GUI To Rule Them All, but that will be in the fuzzy future. :)

Besides wxWidget (maybe a bit huge...) Others are maintained per project base and with subset needed by the project so hardly mature.

While searching for a BSD-licensed, native-controls toolkit I came across Claro Graphics[1]. It looked too good to be true: C, native, lean, scripting languages-friendly. Unfortunately it seems the project is dying even before releasing a first version. :-(

Yes, I saw it, they even planned a Lua binding...

Their layout expression language is interesting, but seems limited to row description, less flexible than the Java TableLayout layout manager, for example. <https://tablelayout.dev.java.net/>

How did you saw it is dying?
