A changed "is a" to "provides".
Regarding naming, there are two classes: `gremlin-jython.py` (which is all
JVM-based) and `gremlin-python.py` (which is all `String` construction based).
Thus,we DO have a distinction in naming. I would suspect any JVM-based language
is automagically using the JVM model -- e.g. Gremlin-Clojure, Gremlin-Scala,
?Gremlin-Rhino? :(, Gremlin-Jython, Gremlin-JRuby, Gremlin-Groovy...
> Write a tutorial demonstrating the 3 ways to write a Gremlin language variant.

> Talking with [~rustyrazorblade] about collaborating on a Gremlin tutorial for
> language designers. Here is what we came up with.
> We will use Python as the host language and demonstrate 3 ways to create
> Gremlin-Python.
> * Using Jython: With Jython you have direct access to the JVM and thus can
> call {{GraphTraversal}} methods directly. We can expose some Python sugar
> here and there to show why its good to have a language specific variant. See
> Gremlin-Scala for inspiration.
> * Using JNI: With Python, we have a {{PythonTraversal}} Python class. That
> class then uses Java Gateway to interact (via proxy) with {{GraphTraversal}}.
> This was done in the past as an experiment with R using rJava.
> * Using String: With Python, we have a {{PythonTraversal}} Python class where
> {{out("knows")}} simply appends {{"out(\"knows\")"}} to a string builder. The
> result can then be a String sent to a {{RemoteConnection}} for evaluation.
> These three models are the three ways in which any language can embed
> Gremlin.
