Just reading up on Automator development <http://developer.apple.com/macosx/tiger/automator.html> and wondering if the MacPython community (or anyone in it) has any plans to 0wnz0r it yet? Like providing a 'Python Automator Action' template for Xcode, flogging a nice introductory 'Developing Automator Actions with Python' article to online tech sites like O'Reilly, making themselves a presence on Automator mailing lists and forums when they arrive, etc.
With Tiger arriving soon, seems like a grand opportunity for someone with a pre-release build and a hankering for MacPython evangelism to get in at the head of the rush and mop the floor with the competition. :)
Given the description, it would be trivial to write an Automator Action in PyObjC 1.2+ using the py2app plug-in bundle support. I doubt I'll be using Automator often enough to become a PyObjC Automator evangelist though.
What's the advantage of PyObjC here? Just because it makes it easier to write the plugin, or does it help with writing the Python code too?
Because I wouldn't mind having automator support in a future "MacPython for Tiger additions"...
