Hi Svenne, your best option is to use ZSI 1.2 
(http://pywebsvcs.sourceforge.net/)
It's IMHO a far better SOAP library than Soapy.

You should also take a look at:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-pyth5/
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-pyth6/ and
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/ws-pyth8.html

regards
