You may want to subscribe to the c++ special interest group, a mailing
list dedicated to C++ and python;
http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/c++-sig/.  I haven't used CXX,
but Boost has much more support for C++ than SWIG does.

You may also want to check out pyste, a tool to automate boost python
extension building: http://www.boost.org/libs/python/pyste/.
