Hi Jochem,

Welcome to this list.

Seems really intersting. I just printed the paper you presented to the 26th 
Congress of ICAS, on last September. Quickly read it, still need a deeper 
reading (I'm not a KBE specialist).

It's not mine either! But it's necessary that someone do it if we want to go on 
with python and OpenCascade. And thanks to Marco for having connected you to 
this project.

Unfortunately, I was just emailed by the SoC team that the pythonOCC 
organization was not accepted as a mentoring organization for the current 
Summer of Code (maybe because there is no pythonOCC organization...). pythonOCC 
is a fairly young project, maybe we can apply for the next SoC (2010), when the 
project is more mature. Anyway, I just stopped smoking and today will however 
remains as a great day in my life!

I'm happy that a KBE expert join this list. My field is rather product data 
management and interoperability. I especially focuses on PDM/ERP 
interoperability (as a PhD candidate too) and the STEP standard as a way to 
overcome the related issues. Our approaches are quite complentary. No doubt 
this mix will lead to rich exchanges and realizations.
