I'm also having trouble finding someone, although I'm looking for an
unpaid volunteer, so it is more to be expected.

This is part of an open source project at SourceForge.  The Python
program would have to call some methods that were compiled from C source
code.

We need someone to add graphics & GUI to an existing C program. The main
program, graphics & GUI would be python/tKinter.  The graphics would
show the path of a virtual sailboat, which has a robot at the helm. The
robot is actually an Artificial Neural Network (ANN).  We use
neuroevolution to discover a competent ANN yachtsman.
