cool!
BTW, there are already some pyclutter based toolkits out there:
Glitter [0], Candies [1] and maybe some more. There are also Python
bindings to the MX toolkit [2].

Of course, as all the magic is in Clutter while pyclutter's only job is
to bring the features of Clutter to the Python language.

Since pyclutter-1.0.0: 48 files changed, 9189 insertions(+), 1352 deletions(-)
in more than 40 commits doesn't sound dead to me ;)

Patches, bugreports and suggestions are always welcome. Especially the
API documentation needs some love.
For the current development branch of clutter (1.1 in master) I already
wrapped some stuff in a local branch (mainly ClutterBox and
LayoutManager), but usually it's not a good idea to wrap an API that's
still in heavy development.

A guide for creating bindings is at [3]. However, the future of
pygobject and friends is pygi [4], which creates bindings to GObject
based libraries at runtime.
