Well, not being a Python-savvy person at all, it seems that pyUNO needs to be adapted to each new version of OOo to support its new classes? If so, this will be an ongoing run-up to match both with each other? As OOo has a Java based scripting framework in place it would be possible to use Jython as a scripting language for executing Python scripts. Using Apache's BSF, which has a Jython engine, the interaction between OOo and Jython should be rather easyly implementable with the scripting framework (use the ooRexx scripting framework code employing BSF to dispatch the ooRexx scripts and change a few lines). Maybe this would alleviate the need to constantly run-up to the latest OOo release and instead make it possible to have a "stabler" support for Python? Again, I am not a "Python-person", so I do not know whether the Jython implementation would be acceptable at all.
