Hi,

I definitely think that aim of Felix is good and needed. For example,
it is hard to incorporate python module into Sage distribution (I
recently went into troubles with pygtk). I guess that having Sage
working with the builtin Python would solve the problem.  Could
someone confirm ?

It is hard to me to understand how sage currently deals with libraries
and programs. And it is even harder to understand Felix solution.
Could someone try to explain where should I look ?

Thanks,
Vincent
