I am also very pleased to see this come along. This will be a very useful tool
:-) erm ... Python <-> Java makes a lot more sense than Python <-> Ada 95, but
I am digressing ... 

Hmm, the build process was a little frustrating for me, but in the end it built
(with a gazillion warnings). When I try to run the TestDND.py sample, I get the
following error message on Linux (Sun or Blackdown JDK, using Python 2.1):

jvmarg = ['-verbose:jni', '-Djava.library.path=.', '-Djava.class.path=.']
jpe.c:432 dlopen </opt/j2sdk1.3.0/jre/lib/i386/server/libjvm.so>
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library: shared object not open

Any idea?
