[PLUG-Devel] RAD on Linux to target Linux and Windows?

I'm looking for a rapid application development (RAD) solution that I
can use on Linux.  The end application needs to be cross platform to
Linux and Windows.  (I'm ignoring Macs for now, no offense.)

- - Single user application with small database.
- - GUI for the end application.  I assume the RAD would also be GUI
because of the end need.
- - Some not-too-complicated reporting is needed.
- - End product will be Free Software.
- - Being developed non-commercially (ie. for no cost).
- - Willing to learn and use a new language.  (Especially since C is my
strong suit and is probably not the best for RAD GUI development.)

I actually have two projects in mind.  The most recent is smaller than
that second so I thought I'd start with it.

I have considered using OpenOffice.org 2.0 with it's new Base database
component but know little about it.

Any pointers to solutions out there are welcome.  Further discussion of
the target application is also welcome if desired.
