I would certainly look at it positively. In fact, I'm somewhat surprised that nobody has done that before, given that there are a lot of Python users out there.

I don't think very many people use the Perl embedding, for instance. > My personal feeling is that after a little work on my part to reformat/merge > the code and documentation, an upstream merge would be fairly trivial. Go ahead, and send me or the list the patches.
