Would like to see some movement here, Simon has done a great work and I personally think that introspection support is very important for the future of PyGTK. >From my POV, the person most knowledgeable about introspection support in PyGObject is Johan Dahlin, but he's probably too busy at Litl to carry the review forward. I'm cc'ing him so he can express his opinion if he wishes. The second in line would be me, who took Johan's work and pushed it forward enough to run Sugar on top of it, see: http://blog.tomeuvizoso.net/2009/05/reducing-sugars-memory-usage.html Simon carried his GSoC project on top of my work adding lots of missing stuff and cleaning up the code a lot. Also, I have a big interest in doing a good review because I'm going to be working myself on this area in the near future, and hopefully the next release of Sugar will depend heavily on it. So I propose that I review the part of the branch that affects girepository and find someone else who reviews the small bits that affect the rest of pygobject. Does it sound good?
