I'm the same person that wrote the bug message. I just
wanted to note that I'm using Windows 2000, if it makes a
difference.

The problem is that Boa Constructor 0.4.4 requires wxPython 2.6.2.1. Any more recent versions of wxPython begins to start introducing incompatibilities (eg, wx.NotebookSizer removed from wxPython 2.7.1.1, and wx.stc.STC_LEX_ASP and wx.stc.STC_LEX_PHP are removed from wxPython 2.6.3.0).

Therefore to use Boa Constructor 0.4.4 you have two choices:

1. download and use wxPython 2.6.2.1
2. use your newer wxPython but follow the Anonymous CVS Access instructions at <https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=1909> and get the latest source by checking out the "boa" directory, and replacing Lib/site-packages/boa-constructor with it. I know this to work for wxPython 2.8.1.1.
