Michael Elsdörfer has ported line_locate_point from PostGIS to Python

   http://bitbucket.org/miracle2k/pyutils/changeset/156c60ec88f8/

Is there anybody else who would be interested in porting more of the  
functions from

   
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/browser/trunk/lwgeom/lwgeom_functions_analytic.c

to Python, using Shapely and/or Numpy? I don't think it would have to  
be a systematic effort, just one that adds the functions as needed,  
and then optimizes them (using Cython, for example) when we really  
need more performance.

If there was interest, we'd start a project on bitbucket based on  
Michael's code. Would have to be GPL if it's derived from PostGIS.
