Have you tried jythonc?

Python is Open Source, so just look over the sources...

What it is "Kannel"? May be you mean "kernel" or some German author? :) If 
"kernel daemon", then UNIX has no one for SMS, but there is just SMS Tools 
package, exactly /usr/bin/smsd daemon and /etc/smsd.conf Check it out with 
the following commands:

	rpm -qa | grep sms
	rpm -ql sms....

All what you need is just to make an wrapper with Perl or Bash for sending 
SMS'es, and invoke it with Java...

Exactly.

There is several well documented papers. You can google it and figure out very 
well.

Yes, sure, do this well! Maybe you'll switch to the Python from the Java! :P
