Python Consultants?

[Dan]

I am working on a python/zope web application and could really use
some *expert* help on a short term basis.

Is there an appropriate forum for trolling for Python Consultants?

Here are a pair XML problems that are available:

#1) Setup to convert these xml files 
http://www.gothamanalytics.com/PairTools/geturl?url=http://app.quotemedia.com/data/getHistory.xml&symbol=SUNW
http://www.gothamanalytics.com/PairTools/geturl/?url=http://app.quotemedia.com/data/getQuotes.xml?symbols=SUNW
into a vector of open,close,volume information suitable for use with a
numerical Python module.  Doing this quickly is a plus.
Here are the dtds of interest:
http://app.quotemedia.com/data/dtds/history.dtd
http://app.quotemedia.com/data/dtds/quotes.dtd
 
#2) Expose the Salesforce.com SOAP functionality from salesforce.com
generated WSDL files, here is an example WSDL
http://gothamanalytics.com/Ex/enterprise.wsdl
See sforce.com for more info on the salesforce.com API.  A Python
solution is preferred but a work around which uses Java and the
Salesform.com Apache Axis library and an appropriate gateway from
python might also be acceptable.  Results from an attempt at using ZSI
to process the WSDL file is appended to this message.
