XRCed (which is included with wxPython) has gotten easier to use and a
bit more capable since then, and has a couple developers contributing
new features.  It takes a little bit of inside-out thinking to be able
to use it effectively, but once you get over that hurdle it is pretty
useful.

wxGlade (http://wxglade.sourceforge.net) is more capable, and layout
design is a bit more easy to do, but development seems to have slowed
down or stopped.  It is modeled off of the Glade tool for GTK, and is
able to generate XRC, Python, C++ or Perl code.  I'm not sure if it can
import existing XRC...
